Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sliced apricots, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and the apricots become tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Place a generous spoonful of the apricot filling onto the center of each tortilla. Roll them up tightly and place seam-side down in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined. Pour this mixture evenly over the enchiladas, ensuring they are well coated.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the enchiladas are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving warm, topped with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Tips
- For added texture, consider sprinkling chopped nuts over the apricot filling before rolling the tortillas.
- Experiment with other fruits like peaches or cherries for a different flavor profile.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of almond extract to the apricot filling.
