Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with nonstick cooking spray.
Using a star-shaped cookie cutter, cut out star shapes from the flour tortillas. Gather any scraps for another use like homemade tortilla chips.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Brush both sides of each tortilla star lightly with the seasoned olive oil mixture.
Arrange the tortilla stars in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet without overlapping.
If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the tortilla stars for added flavor.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the stars are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them, as they can burn quickly toward the end of the baking time.
Remove the tortilla stars from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving.
Serve the tortilla stars as a fun snack or pair them with dips like salsa, guacamole, or queso for extra enjoyment.
