Ingredients:
- Homemade Apple Pie Filling or 1 (21-ounce) can of apple pie filling

- Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F, setting the stage for the deliciousness to come.
- Take a 9 x 13 inch baking dish and give it a generous buttery embrace, ensuring nothing sticks.
- If your tortillas need a little tenderness, pop them in the microwave briefly to make them pliable and ready for rolling.
- Now, let the enchantment begin. Spoon approximately a heaping 1/4 cup of apple pie filling slightly off-center on each tortilla. Sprinkle the magic of ground cinnamon evenly over each mound of filling.
- Gently roll up the tortillas, securing the apple-filled goodness inside, and place them seam side down in your awaiting baking dish.
- In a medium saucepan, conjure a potion by bringing together the butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and water. Bring this enchanting mixture to a bubbling boil.
- With the wisdom of patience, reduce the heat and let it simmer for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. The aroma will start to cast its spell.
- Pour this bewitching sauce over your enchiladas, and if you desire an extra touch of cinnamon magic, sprinkle some on top.
- Let this enchanted creation stand for 45 minutes, allowing the flavors to harmonize.
- Now, it’s time for the final act. Place your baking dish in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the enchiladas turn a golden hue.
- As your Apple Pie Enchiladas emerge from the oven, serve them warm with a scoop of velvety vanilla ice cream, a dollop of whipped cream, and a drizzle of caramel sauce. The grand finale awaits!
