Apple Pie Nachos Recipe

Ingredients:

Crispas

• 2 tortillas
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 cups vegetable oil

Apple Pie Mix

• 2 baking apples, diced into 1/2 inch pieces 
• 4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar (light or dark)
• 1 ounce Amaretto

Toppings

• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/4 cup pecans, chopped

Directions:

1. 1
   Heat oil until it "speaks" when you sprinkle water into it. Cut each tortilla in half, then cut each half into 4 wedges.
2. 2
   Mix cinnamon and sugar in a shallow dish with another paper towel lined dish right next to it.
3. 3
   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.
4. 4
   When finished with crispas, toss together diced apples and lemon juice.
5. 5
   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.
6. 6
   Add brown sugar and stir well until evenly distributed. Remove pan from heat.
7. 7
   Beat heavy whipping cream (works best in a chilled bowl) just until stiff.
8. 8
   Gradually add sugar and vanilla and beat until stiff peaks form.
9. 9
   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.
