Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
For the street taco-size tortillas, place about 3 Tablespoons pie filling slightly off center in the tortilla, then roll the tortilla and place on the baking sheet.
Don't roll too tightly, you want the filling to stay away from the ends of the tortillas about 1/2 an inch since the filling will spread as it cooks. If you roll these too tightly, the filling will squish out the ends as they cook.
Repeat until all the tortillas and pie filling are used up.
Brush the tops of the flautas with oil. Combine the cinnamon and sugar in a small cup, then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar over the tops of the flautas.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the ends of the flautas are browned. If you bake these too long, the filling will squish out the ends, so try not to cook these longer than 12 minutes.
Allow the fruit flautas to cool for about 10 minutes before eating (the filling is very hot right out of the oven!).
These taste the best when they're freshly made, but if you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container after they're fully cooled for up to 2 days.

Notes
If you want to reduce the amount of sugar in this recipe, use a reduced sugar pie filling for these flautas!
