Ingredients
Scale
Tortillas and Filling
- 6 (8-inch) flour tortillas
- 21 oz peach pie filling
- 3 tbsp cinnamon
Butter Sugar Sauce
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup water
Topping
- 4 tbsp cinnamon and sugar mixture
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure a consistent baking temperature for the enchiladas.
- Prepare the Baking Dish: Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with softened butter or cooking spray and set it aside for assembling the enchiladas.
- Soften the Tortillas (if needed): If your flour tortillas aren’t fresh and pliable, warm them in the microwave for about 10 seconds to soften and make them easier to roll.
- Fill the Tortillas: Evenly divide the peach pie filling among the tortillas, placing the filling down the center of each. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp cinnamon on top of the peach filling in each tortilla.
- Roll and Place: Roll up each tortilla around the filling and place them seam side down in the greased baking dish.
- Prepare Peach Sauce: Pour 1/4 cup water into the empty peach pie filling can to loosen any leftover filling and make a sauce. Swish to combine.
- Make Butter-Sugar Mixture: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and reserved peach sauce. Stir until the butter melts and sugars dissolve, then bring to a slow boil and remove from heat.
- Add Sauce to Enchiladas: Carefully pour the butter-sugar mixture over the rolled tortillas in the baking dish, ensuring all tortillas are evenly coated.
- Add Cinnamon Sugar Topping: Sprinkle the cinnamon and sugar mixture evenly over the top of the enchiladas.
- Bake: Bake the enchiladas in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbling. For a caramelized top, broil for 1–2 minutes after baking.
- Serve: Allow the enchiladas to cool slightly before serving. They are best served warm; add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
Notes
- Warming the tortillas makes them easier to roll without cracking.
- Using the peach pie filling can to add water ensures you don’t lose any flavor in the sauce.
- Broiling briefly after baking caramelizes the sugar topping for extra texture.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a delicious dessert pairing.
