We Love Chips and Salsa!
We eat a ton of Tortilla Chips and salsa at our house so it’s only natural we create a dessert version!
We’ve been making these cinnamon tortilla chips every since we were kids because they are delicious, especially when paired with our fresh Strawberry Salsa.
Why we love it:
What better way to end our Mexican dinners than with a Mexican dessert?
Only 4 Ingredients
- flour tortillas – I used 10-inch tortillas but you can use a smaller size for smaller chips. Use store-bought or Homemade Tortillas.
- butter – unsalted or salted, whatever you have on hand.
- sugar
- cinnamon – for a fun twist add in some nutmeg or use a pumpkin pie spice.
How to make Cinnamon Tortilla Chips
- PREP. Preheat oven to 350°F.
- SEASON. Mix sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Brush Flour Tortillas with butter and sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- BAKE. Cut each tortilla into wedges. Place on an ungreased sheet pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes or just until crisp. Serve with Fruit Salsa.
Air Fryer Directions
Prepare the tortillas as instructed in the recipe. Place a batch of tortilla chips in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
Fry at 360°F for 3-4 minutes. Shake the basket a bit and air fry for another 3-4 minutes. (Since they are brushed with butter you do not need to use cooking spray.)
STORING Tips
- STORE. Keep cinnamon chips in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days. If they soften, stick them back in the oven to crisp them up again.
- FREEZE. Place cooled chips in a freezer Ziploc, and freeze for up to 3 months. Crisp in the oven for a few minutes.
