- Ground Cinnamon
- Salted Butter
- Granulated Sugar

This fun spin on peach pie comes together quickly since there isn’t any pie crust involved! Instead, taking its place are flour tortillas that you can grab right at the store or make from scratch if you prefer.
The canned peach pie filling can also be swapped out for homemade if you’d like. The filling in my Southern Peach Cobbler is made with canned peaches and would make an excellent filling choice in these enchiladas!
However, when making this recipe, I typically like to keep it quick and easy. Therefore I grab the storebought tortillas and canned filling.
Substitutions and Variations
- Butter – If all you have is unsalted butter on hand, that can be used instead of salted butter. To make the swap, just a 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the peach sauce mixture in the saucepan.
- Fruit Filling – Try a different canned fruit filling, such as canned apple pie filling, for a tasty dessert enchilada variation. Just don’t forget to serve it with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream!
- Lemon Juice – Since this dessert is very sweet, you can add a bit of tartness to it by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to the pie filling. Once the lemon juice is added to the canned filling, make sure to stir it together before dividing it between the tortillas.
- Garnishes – Garnish each enchilada with a fresh peach slice or fresh mint sprig.
