Cherry Pie Taquitos Air Fryer (Print-Friendly Version)
Soft tortillas hold a gooey cherry center, air fried to a golden crunch, then topped with melty butter and a dust of powdered sugar.
# Ingredients List:
→ Topping
01 -
2 teaspoons powdered sugar (if you want)
02 -
4 tablespoons melted butter
→ Shell
03 -
12 regular flour tortillas (medium size, soft)
→ Filling
04 -
1 (21-ounce) can cherry pie filling
# Detailed Cooking Steps:
01 -
Once taquitos are crispy and cooked, slide them onto a plate and sprinkle powdered sugar on top if you like.
02 -
Set your air fryer to 350°F (177°C). Let the taquitos cook for around 9 to 11 minutes. You'll know they're ready when they're golden and crunchy.
03 -
Put each filled taquito in the basket with the seam down so they stay closed. Give them space—don't pile them up or cram together.
04 -
Cover every rolled-up taquito in a melted butter layer so they're fully coated.
05 -
Lay tortillas out, spread 2 spoonfuls of cherry filling across the middle, and roll each one up nice and tight.
# Helpful Hints:
01 -
Sprinkle on cinnamon sugar, use fresh fruit, drizzle with caramel, or add brown sugar for an extra sweet treat.
02 -
Change up the filling by swapping in apple, blueberry, or chopped fresh apples instead of cherry.
03 -
Don't pack in too much—you want to keep the filling from spilling out. Rolling them up snug helps keep the insides in.
