2 large apples, diced. Spies, Jonathons, a solid sweet/tart apple (about 2 cups)
2-3 tablespoons orange juice or 1 tablespoon orange juice concentrate
or you could just use a little lemon juice if you wish
¼ cup dark brown sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ cup water (this could be orange juice, depending on whether you used OJ concentrate)
1 Tablespoon corn starch mixed with 3 Tablespoons cold water.
For the Chips:
4-5 small fajita size flour tortillas
2 Tablespoons butter, melted
½ cup sugar mixed with 2 Tablespoons cinnamon
Instructions
In a small saucepan, mix the apples with the sugar, cinnamon and juice. Heat on low/medium heat, testing for spice/sugar content. Once you get the flavors where you want them, you may need to add a little water, just to make sure you have a little sauce to the apples.
Simmer the mixture for about 5 minutes, until the apples just start to soften. Mix the cornstarch and cold water to make a slurry. Whisking or stirring constantly, drizzle the cornstarch mixture into the apples, adding JUST enough to thicken the apple mixture slightly. Remove from heat.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Brush both sides of each tortilla with the melted butter, then sprinkle both sides with the sugar/cinnamon mixture. Cut each tortilla into 8 wedges and place on cookie sheet. Bake for about 5 minutes per side until browned and crisp. Allow to cool.
Serve warm with the tortilla chips for dipping.
