1
Prepare Apples

Peel, core, and chop the apples into small pieces.

2
Cook Apples

In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the chopped apples, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Cook until apples are soft, about 5 minutes.

3
Prepare Cornstarch Mixture

In a small bowl, mix water and cornstarch until smooth.

4
Thicken Apple Mixture

Add the cornstarch mixture to the skillet with apples. Cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

5
Fill Tortillas

Divide the apple mixture among the flour tortillas, placing it on one half of each tortilla. Fold the tortilla over to enclose the filling.

6
Fry Chimichangas

In a large skillet, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Fry the chimichangas until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.

7
Finish with Sugar and Cinnamon

Mix the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Sprinkle over the hot chimichangas before serving.
