Satisfy your snack cravings with these crispy, golden-brown No Fry Tortilla Chips that are irresistibly crunchy yet guilt-free! Made with just three simple ingredients—corn tortillas, olive oil, and salt—with the option to spice things up with seasonings like chili powder or paprika, these homemade chips are baked or air-fried to perfection. Ready in just 20 minutes, this easy recipe skips the oil-laden frying process, making it a healthier alternative to store-bought chips. Ideal for pairing with salsa, guacamole, or your favorite dips, these versatile, gluten-free chips are perfect for game days, parties, or anytime snacking. Plus, they store beautifully for up to three days, so you can enjoy their freshness even longer!
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) or set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Stack the corn tortillas and cut them into 6 even wedges (like slicing a pizza), resulting in 36 chips.
Lay the tortilla wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or directly in your air fryer basket. Avoid overlapping the chips for even cooking.
Lightly brush or spray the tortillas with olive oil, ensuring each chip gets a thin, even coating.
Sprinkle the chips with salt and any optional seasonings you choose for added flavor.
For the oven: Bake the chips for 8-10 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even crisping. For the air fryer: Cook the chips for 5-7 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
Keep a close eye on the chips during the last few minutes of cooking to prevent burning. The chips should be golden and crispy.
Remove the chips from the oven or air fryer and let them cool completely on a wire rack for maximum crispiness.
Serve immediately with salsa, guacamole, or your favorite dip, or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
