Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces flour tortillas
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter
- 1 as needed cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until evenly combined. Set aside.
Melt the unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval until fully melted.
Brush one side of each flour tortilla with the melted butter using a pastry brush.
Sprinkle a generous layer of the cinnamon sugar mixture over the buttered side of each tortilla, ensuring an even coat.
Stack 2-3 tortillas at a time and use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut them into wedges or strips, depending on your preference.
Lay the tortilla pieces in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they do not overlap to ensure even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them as they can burn quickly.
Remove from the oven and let the baked tortillas cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. They will crisp up further as they cool.
Serve warm or at room temperature as a snack or dessert. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
