Ingredients
For the apple pie dip
4 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced
2 tablespoons butter
¼ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water
For the cinnamon tortilla chips
6 flour tortillas
¼ cup melted butter
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
To make the dip, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced apples, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Stir well to coat the apples in the sugar and spices.
Cook the mixture for about 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft and the sugars are bubbling.
Stir in the cornstarch and water mixture and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
For the chips, brush both sides of the tortillas with melted butter. In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture generously over both sides of the tortillas.
Cut the tortillas into wedges and arrange in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden and crispy, flipping halfway through if needed.
Allow the chips to cool slightly before serving with the warm apple pie dip.
Notes
You can use a mix of apple varieties for a more complex flavor. If you prefer softer apples, cook a bit longer. These cinnamon chips are also great with other fruit dips or on their own. Store any leftover dip in the fridge and reheat gently before serving. The chips should be kept in an airtight container to maintain their crispness.
