Servings 5
Ingredients
- 5 8-inch taco-size flour tortillas
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- Heaping ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 4 tablespoons butter melted
Instructions
- Using a large knife or a pizza cutter, cut all of the tortillas into 8 even triangles. Separate the pieces if needed and add to a large bowl.
- Stir together the sugar and cinnamon.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the tortilla pieces in the bowl, tossing to coat. Add as much of the cinnamon sugar mixture as desired, tossing to evenly distribute.
- Preheat an air fryer to 350°F for 3 minutes. Once preheated, add the tortilla pieces, working in batches if needed based on the size of your air fryer. Air fry at 350°F for 12-15 minutes, tossing every few minutes, until the chips are golden brown.
- Spread chips onto a baking sheet to cool. Chips will crisp as they cool. If working in batches, continue air frying until all of the chips are done.
- Serve with fruit salsa or ice cream.
