Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • Apricots (4 cups, pitted and sliced)
  • Sugar (1 cup)
  • Cornstarch (2 tablespoons)
  • Cinnamon (1 teaspoon)
  • Flour tortillas (8 large)
  • Butter (1/4 cup, melted)
  • Brown sugar (2 tablespoons)
  • Vanilla ice cream (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced apricots, sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Stir well to ensure the apricots are evenly coated with the sugar and spices.
  3. Lay out your tortillas and place a generous spoonful of the apricot mixture in the center of each one. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up from one end to the other to form a burrito.
  4. Arrange the filled burritos seam-side down in a greased baking dish to prevent them from opening during baking.
  5. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and brown sugar to make a glaze. Brush this sweet glaze over the tops of the burritos.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the tortillas turn a beautiful golden brown and the fruity filling is bubbling with excitement.
  7. Serve your Apricot Cobbler Burritos warm, each one elegantly crowned with a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream. Enjoy the fusion of flavors and the delightful contrast between the warm cobbler and the cold ice cream.
