A Reader’s Review

So easy to make! I had all the ingredients, and it was perfect. Next time I want to have ingredients ready for a dip. Plain was good enough for the first attempt at making this great snack.

Reasons to Make a Double Batch

  • Sweet & Snackable: Light, crispy, and coated in cinnamon sugar… you’ll be grabbing “just one more” all day.
  • Fast Fix, Pantry Friendly: I make these all the time because they’re fast, delicious, and I always have the ingredients on hand.
  • Dip-Ready: Pair them with a fruit charcuterie board , chocolate sauce , or whipped cream . They’re seriously good with everything!

  • Flour Tortillas: I use flour tortillas because they’re always in my pantry and bake up perfectly. Corn tortillas work too, just watch the time since they cook faster.
  • Sugar: Adjust to taste, I like mine on the sweeter side.
  • Other Flavors: For a fall twist, mix in some pumpkin spice . So good!

How to Make Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Chips

These cinnamon tortilla chips come together in no time and are seriously hard to resist. Good thing they’re so easy to whip up because a second batch is almost always a must. My kids go through them fast, so I love that I can make more any time!

  1. Melt the Butter: Preheat the oven to 350ºF. In a small bowl, melt the butter in the microwave.
  2. Combine the Cinnamon and Sugar: In a separate bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon, then stir to combine.
  3. Butter the Tortillas: Lay the flour tortillas flat, then brush them evenly with the melted butter on one side.
  4. Sprinkle: Sprinkle generously with the cinnamon sugar mixture. Optional: Carefully flip the tortillas over and repeat the butter and sugar mixture on the other side. Not necessary, but makes them extra delicious!
  5. Cut: Using a knife or a pizza cutter , cut the tortillas into small triangles.
  6. Bake: Place the wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet . Don’t overcrowd the pan! If the chips are piled up, they’ll steam instead of crisp. Give them space to get that perfect golden crunch. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until the tortilla chips are crispy.
