~Make a pan of your own and just sit back and listen to the ‘Oooh’s and Ahh’s”
What you’ll need:
2-21 oz. cans of Apple and/or Caramel Apple Lucky Leaf Premium Pie Filling and Topping
8 Flour Tortillas
1/4 cup Butter..melted
1 tbsp. Cinnamon/Sugar ..mixed to taste.
1/4 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
The Dutch Crumble:
In a bowl, mix 1 1/2 cups flour, 3/4 cup light-brown sugar, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and cinnamon. Cut 1 1/2 sticks chilled unsalted butter into pieces. With your hands, work in butter pieces, until large clumps form.
Caramel for topping.. optional
8x12x3″ deep oven safe dish
Directions:
Chop the Apple Pie Filling into small pieces, the size is up to you… but you want them small enough to spread evenly…
Melt the butter and stir in the cinnamon.sugar mixture.
Drizzle a thin layer of the butter all around the baking pan and dust it with the graham cracker crumbs… reserve the rest of the butter…
Place one or two of the tortillas down into the bottom of the pan, making sure to cover as much of the pan as possible. Brush the tortillas with some of the butter…
Add in some of the chopped apple pie filling, just enough to evenly coat the tortillas…
Repeat again until you’ve built your lasagna to the top of the pan (or ran out of ingredients..whichever comes first)
Top the last tortilla with some of the cinnamon butter, COVER it with foil, and bake it at 350 degrees for 20 minutes…
(while it’s baking, prepare the crumb topping) >
In a bowl, mix 1 1/2 cups flour, 3/4 cup light-brown sugar, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and cinnamon. Cut 1 1/2 sticks chilled unsalted butter into pieces. With your hands, work in butter pieces, until large clumps form.
Take it out of the oven and uncover it.. now, top it with the crumble…
and continue baking it UNCOVERED for another 12 minutes or so..or until the crumble is slightly golden.
Let it cool for a few minutes…
Serve it warm, and plate it up…
Don’t forget some caramel topping, or even a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
Dig in! ~Enjoy!
