Baked Corn Tortilla Chips are easy to make and a better alternative to fried tortilla chips. These baked chips have a nice crisp and are not at all greasy. Start making these lighter, better for you chips at home.
Ingredients
  • Corn tortillas, flour
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • Salt, to season
  • Cumin, Chili Powder, Garlic Salt, Cinnamon, any seasonings you love (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Cover baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
  2. Start by cutting a stack of corn tortillas in half and then cut each half in half again giving you 4 uniform wedges.
  3. Arrange tortilla wedges in a single layer on foil lined baking sheet. Brush lightly with olive oil and season with salt. Toss with your hands to coat. *See below for TIP*
  4. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Check chips at roughly 8 minutes and turn as needed. The chips are down when edges are crisp and slightly brown.
  5. Allow time to cool and crisp up.
  6. Serve immediately with salsa, guacamole, queso, hummus, etc.
  7. Store in an airtight plastic bag or container for up to 2 days.
  8. *TIP 1* You can lightly coat the tortilla shells with olive oil prior to cutting or you can cut the tortillas in wedges, place in a plastic bag, add 1 tbsp. of olive oil along with seasonings and gently shake the bag to coat.
  9. *TIP 2* For a traditional chip season with a little bit of salt, but get creative and use cumin, garlic salt, chili powder, cinnamon, etc. Also, use any tortilla shells you prefer or have in the pantry. I often buy flour and whole wheat tortillas which are just as delicious.
