Baked Cinnamon Chip Recipe

Bake a sweet batch of homemade tortilla chips using flour tortillas. This is an easy way to salvage stale flour tortillas. The sturdy chips are delicious with sweet dips, such as yogurt dips and flavored cream cheeses. They also make a nice finish for ice cream sundaes and other desserts.

This recipe takes maybe 15 minutes tops and lining the baking sheets with parchment paper means cleanup is a breeze too.

Baked Tortilla Cinnamon Chips Recipe
Yield: 36 cinnamon chips

Ingredients
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup sugar
melted butter, vegetable oil or cooking spray
6 flour tortillas

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Combine sugar and cinnamon. Set aside. Lightly brush one side of the tortillas with oil, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and stack. Carefully cut in half. Make two diagonal cuts, like an ”x”, to form six wedges.

Spread the tortilla wedges in a single layer on each pan.

Bake until crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the pans midway through baking and turn the chips over. Rotate the pans so the tortilla cinnamon chips bake evenly. The chip edges will curl slightly when they are done.

Transfer the tortilla cinnamon chips to a wire rack to cool.

Tortilla Cinnamon Chips Recipe Tips and Tricks

• Watch the tortilla wedges closely as they bake. They can go from undercooked to burnt in a flash.
• Reserve leftover cinnamon sugar mixture for other recipes.
• Store leftover cinnamon chips in an airtight container for up to a week.
• Use parchment paper to keep any stray cooked sugar from sticking to the baking pans.
