HEALTHY BAKED CORN TORTILLA CHIPS (HOMEMADE)
A wonderful healthy snack and a great way to use up leftover corn tortillas. Great with Recipe #287183 or for making nachos. I vary the toppings on this depending on what I will be serving them with, but lately have just been making them plain. VARIATION: If you need more healthy oils in your diet, brush with olive oil.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Stack tortillas one on top of the other and use kitchen sizzors to cut them into 4 slices like you would cut up a pizza.
- Spread them out in a single layer on a cookie sheet (not air-bake) , spacing them at least 1/4" apart (they will be chewy instead of crispy if not spaced properly). (NOTE: If you must use an air-bake pan, try 350 degrees for 20 minutes.).
- Shake salt and desired toppings over tortillas.
- TOPPING OPTIONS (choose any combo): SPICES: paprika, chili powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder (sparingly), cayenne pepper (sparingly, will add heat!). CHEESES: grated parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, pepper jack cheese, etc. or try SWEET: cinnamon & sugar.
- Bake 8-12 mins or until chips are starting to get crispy and slightly golden brown at the edges (check every 1-2 minutes after 8 mins).
- Remove from oven and let cool 5-10 mins before serving in order to let them fully crispen. Extra Crispy: put back in turned off oven at least 10 mins or until ready to serve for extra crispy and warm chips (watch them, you may need to leave oven door cracked to prevent over browning).
Tips:
- Use fresh corn tortillas for the best results. Stale tortillas will not produce crispy chips.
- Cut the tortillas into uniform wedges or triangles so that they cook evenly.
- Toss the tortilla wedges with oil and salt before baking to ensure they are crispy and flavorful.
- Spread the tortilla wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet to prevent them from steaming.
- Bake the tortilla chips at a high temperature (400°F or 200°C) for a short period of time (8-10 minutes) to achieve maximum crispiness.
- Keep an eye on the tortilla chips while they are baking to prevent them from burning.
- Allow the tortilla chips to cool completely before serving to ensure they are crispy.
Conclusion:
Homemade baked tortilla chips are a delicious and versatile snack that can be enjoyed on their own or with a variety of dips and toppings. They are also a healthier alternative to store-bought tortilla chips, as they are lower in fat and sodium. With just a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can easily make your own homemade baked tortilla chips that are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
