Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix cinnamon and sugar together (I use my Pampered Chef sugar shaker for this). Spread tortilla quarters on cooking sheet or jelly roll pan and spray with cooking spray, shake cinnamon/sugar over tortillas, then spray lightly again. Bake in oven for 10-15 minutes or until crisp, but not burnt.
- While crispas bake, put apples and amaretto into a medium-sized skillet and cook over medium heat until apples just start to get tender and barely break down.
- Add brown sugar and stir well until evenly distributed. Remove pan from heat.
- Put 4 crispas on a plate. Top with a tablespoon or more of apple mixture, then a dollop of whipped cream. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.
APPLE PIE NACHOS
I took one look at the RSC ingredients and saw a homemade classic...but I didn't want the same old, same old. This dessert is fairly easy to put together and after little more than 30 minutes, you've got delicious warm apples with crispy cinnamon crunch, all topped with cool whipped cream and a bit of crunch to boot! Enjoy!

Steps:
- Heat oil until it "speaks" when you sprinkle water into it. Cut each tortilla in half, then cut each half into 4 wedges.
- Mix cinnamon and sugar in a shallow dish with another paper towel lined dish right next to it.
- Put 2-4 tortilla wedges into the hot oil and cook until light brown on each side, flipping only once (this should take about 1 minute). Remove immediately from oil one by one and completely cover in cinnamon sugar mixture on both sides before placing on towel lined dish to cool and drain.
- When finished with crispas, toss together diced apples and lemon juice.
- Put apples, lemon juice and amaretto into a medium-sized skillet and cook over medium heat until apples just start to get tender and barely break down.
- Add brown sugar and stir well until evenly distributed. Remove pan from heat.
- Beat heavy whipping cream (works best in a chilled bowl) just until stiff.
- Gradually add sugar and vanilla and beat until stiff peaks form.
- On a plate or platter, set out each crispa individually. Top with a teaspoon or more of apple mixture, then a dollop of whipped cream. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.
Tips:
- Choose the right apples. Granny Smith or Honeycrisp apples are best for baking, as they hold their shape well and have a tart flavor.
- Peel and slice the apples thinly. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Use a large skillet to cook the apples. This will give them enough room to spread out and brown evenly.
- Cook the apples over medium heat. This will help them to caramelize and develop a rich flavor.
- Add a little bit of sugar and spices to the apples. This will help to enhance their flavor.
- Use a variety of toppings. You can use anything from whipped cream to ice cream to nuts to chocolate chips.
- Serve the nachos immediately. They are best when they are hot and fresh.
Conclusion:
Apple pie nachos are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with just a few simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give apple pie nachos a try!
