Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Taquitos
  • 1 cup cherry pie filling
  • 8 small flour tortillas
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Cooking spray For spraying the taquitos
  • Optional: powdered sugar for dusting

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prepare the Filling: Start by placing the cherry pie filling in a bowl. Stir it slightly to even out the cherries so they’ll distribute well in your taquitos.
  2. Roll the Taquitos: Lay out a flour tortilla on a flat surface. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of cherry pie filling onto the center. Roll it up tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to prevent filling leakage. Repeat for all tortillas.
  3. Season the Outside: In a separate bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon. Once your taquitos are rolled up, spray them lightly with cooking spray and roll them in the sugar-cinnamon mixture to coat.
  4. Air Fry the Taquitos: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place the taquitos seam-side down in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Air fry for 7-8 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  5. Serve: Allow them to cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

These delightful Air Fryer Cherry Pie Taquitos are best enjoyed fresh. For leftovers, place them in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to three days, or freeze for up to a month. Reheat in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes to restore crispiness.
