Equipment

Ingredients

  • 3 flour tortillas
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • pinch salt
US - Metric

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C).
  • Stack the tortillas and slice them into six equal wedges using a sharp knife.
  • Brush both sides of each wedge with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet in a single layer. Or, toss the wedges in a bowl with olive oil until evenly coated. Lightly sprinkle with salt.
  • Bake for 8 to 12 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through for even crisping. The chips are ready when they’re dry and lightly golden.
  • Let the chips cool before transferring them to a bowl or airtight container.

Notes

  • Coat Evenly: Make sure each tortilla wedge is lightly and evenly coated with oil for crisp, golden chips.
  • Flip Halfway: Turn the chips once during baking to ensure both sides bake evenly.
  • Watch Closely: Keep an eye on them near the end of baking—they can go from perfectly crisp to overdone quickly.
  • Store Properly: Cool the chips completely before storing in an airtight container to keep them crunchy.
