Warm Cherry Pie Rolls with Ice Cream

A warm dessert topped with vanilla ice cream is the best.

And it’s even better when there’s some crunch involved like with these cherry pie rolls.

This dessert tastes so good it seems like it would be much harder to make than it is.

About this Recipe

These cherry pie rolls are made with flour tortillas that are filled with premade cherry pie filling.

And the type of premade filling can be changed up to your liking.

For example, blueberry or apple pie filling would also taste wonderful.

The cherry pie rolls are lightly fried in canola oil and topped with powdered sugar.

And that’s it….super simple to make.

Just add vanilla ice cream on top and they’re ready to serve.

For Serving

This dessert is best when served warm so that the outside crust is crispy, and the warmth of the pie makes the vanilla ice cream slightly melt over the entire dessert.

When the warm pie filling meets up with the melted vanilla ice cream, the taste is glorious.

For the serving dish, a banana split bowl works nicely so that the melted ice cream can be eaten with a spoon.

If you’ve had a warm slice of pie served with ice cream on a plate before, you may know how hard it can be to get the melted ice cream in the spoon to eat along with the pie.

Desserts served with vanilla ice cream on top are so good.

For the Flour Tortillas

Cherry pie filling and flour tortilla

Set a flour torilla on a microwavable plate.

In a microwave, slightly warm a tortilla for about 38 seconds or less, just long enough to make it soft so that it will roll without breaking.

Add Cherry Pie Filling to the Tortilla

As soon as the tortilla comes out of the microwave

…spoon the filling (apprx. 2 heaping tablespoons) in a narrow lengthwise area about an inch away from the sides of the tortilla.

Make the Cherry Pie Roll

Fold flour tortilla over cherry pie filling

Fold the front of the tortilla over the cherry pie filling as tight as possible all the way around the pie filling (so none of the filling can squeeze out when rolling the tortilla).

Ingredients

Cherry Pie Rolls:

  • 1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling or your preferred type of pie filling
  • 1 package (8-count) large flour tortillas
  • 3/4 cup canola oil amount may vary depending on the size of the pan
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar for garnish

Toppings:

  • Vanilla ice cream about 2 scoops per serving
  • 1 container (8 ounces) Whipped cream or whipped topping
  • Maraschino cherries with stems

Instructions

For the Flour Tortillas:

  • Set a flour torilla on a microwavable plate. In a microwave, slightly warm a tortilla for about 38 seconds or less, just long enough to make it soft so that it will roll without breaking.

Make the Cherry Pie Roll:

  • As soon as the tortilla comes out of the microwave, spoon the filling (apprx. 2 heaping tablespoons) in a narrow lengthwise area about an inch away from the sides of the tortilla.
  • Fold the front of the tortilla over the filling as tight as possible all the way around the filling (so that the filling doesn’t squeeze out when rolling the tortilla). 
  • Fold over each of the sides in a 2-inch fold. Roll the tortilla over the pie filling as tight as possible.
  • Repeat this process of filling and rolling the tortillas for as many servings as you would like.

Lightly Fry the Pie Rolls:

  • To a medium size skillet, add canola oil so that it's about 1-inch deep in the pan.
  • Heat the oil on medium heat and carefully put the pie rolls in the skillet.
    The oil gets hot fast so keep an eye on it in case you need to turn the heat down a little.
  • Using cooking tongs, continue turning the pie rolls so they cook evenly. Cook the pie rolls until they're golden on all sides.
    Then carefully transfer the pie rolls onto a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.

Serve:

  • While the pie rolls are warm, using cooking tongs carefully put each pie roll on individual serving dishes.
  • Dust the pie rolls with powdered sugar. 

Ice Cream and Toppings:

  • On top of each pie roll, add two scoops of vanilla ice cream (or more if you like).
  • Then on top, add a good size dollop of whipped cream or whipped topping. Garnish with a maraschino cherry. 
  • This is best when served warm (but not hot) along with ice cream and whipped cream.
