Ingredients

  • 6 granny smith apples, peeled & small diced (about 4 cups)
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • tsp ground nutmeg
  • ½ tsp tapioca starch
  • ½ tsp water
  • 5 NUCO Coconut Wraps

Instructions

  • Add the small diced granny smith apples to a sauce pan along with the maple syrup, lemon juice, cinnamon and nutmeg. Bring to a slow boil.
  • Allow the apples to cook for about ten minutes or until softened but can still hold their shape. You do not want them mushy. Once they are softened, mix the tapioca starch and water together and pour into the apple mixture. The mixture will start to thicken. Once thick, remove from the heat and allow to cool for a moment.
  • While the apple pie filling is cooling, preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  • Once the apples are cooled slightly, lay one of the NUCO Coconut Wraps on the counter and scoop ½ cup of the apple pie filling in the middle. Fold the left and right side of the wrap towards the middle and then bring the bottom of the wrap to the middle and roll. See the pictures above for guidance. Place the burrito on the baking tray with the edge of the wrap on the bottom so it does not come unfolded. Continue with the remaining wraps.
  • Place the baking tray in the oven and bake for about ten minutes. The edges will start to brown. Once the burrito is evenly brown, remove from the oven and allow to cool. Enjoy!
