Ingredients
6 flour tortillas
0.5 cup granulated sugar
1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
0.25 cup butter or neutral oil (for brushing or frying)
Optional: 0.25 teaspoon vanilla sugar or a pinch of nutmeg
Instructions
1. Stack tortillas and slice each into 6–8 triangles.
2. In a small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon.
3. For frying: Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high. Fry chips 30–45 seconds per side. Drain on paper towels.
4. For baking: Preheat oven to 375°F. Brush chips with melted butter or oil, bake for 8–10 minutes, flipping once.
5. While chips are still warm, toss in cinnamon sugar mixture. Coat evenly.
6. Serve immediately or let cool before storing.
Notes
Always toss the chips in cinnamon sugar while warm—it helps the coating stick better.
If baking, keep a close eye after 8 minutes to prevent over-browning.
