Preparation Time: 15 minutes

Cooking Time: 17 minutes

Serves: 4

Ingredients

Tostadas:

  • 2 tbsp (25 mL) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) ground cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp (25 mL) butter, melted
  • 4 small flour tortillas (7-inch/18 cm)

Topping:

  • 3 Ontario Apples, peeled and cut into thin slices
  • 2 tbsp (25 mL) butter
  • 1/3 cup (75 mL) Ontario Maple Syrup
  • 1/3 cup (75 mL) Ontario Whipping Cream, whipped
  • Ground cinnamon

Instructions

Tostadas: In small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon; set aside. Place tortillas on parchment paper-lined large, rimmed baking sheet. Brush with half of the butter. Sprinkle with half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Turn tortillas over; repeat with remaining butter and cinnamon-sugar. Bake in 400°F (200°C) oven for 5 minutes. Flip tortillas; bake for 4 to 5 minutes or until golden. Set aside (tortillas will crisp as they cool).

Topping: In large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Cook apples, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. Add maple syrup and cook, stirring, for about 4 minutes or until apples are softened and glazed.

Spoon apples with syrup onto tostadas. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with cinnamon.
