This simple recipe turns ordinary flour tortillas into a sweet, crispy treat. Perfect as a snack or dessert, they pair wonderfully with ice cream or fruit dips.
Ingredients
- 1 stick (½ cup) butter, melted
- 3 small flour tortillas
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). - Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Mixture:
In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon, mixing until evenly distributed. - Butter the Tortillas:
Brush one side of each flour tortilla with melted butter, ensuring an even coat. - Sprinkle with Cinnamon Sugar:
Generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the buttered side of the tortillas. Flip the tortillas over and repeat the process on the other side. - Bake the Tortillas:
Arrange the tortillas in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 15–17 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crisp. - Cool and Break:
Remove the tortillas from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet. Once cooled, break them into bite-sized pieces. - Serve:
Enjoy the cinnamon crisps on their own as a snack, or serve them with ice cream, fruit compote, or even a creamy dip for an extra treat.
Tips for the Best Cinnamon Crisps
- Customize the Sugar Mix: Adjust the cinnamon-to-sugar ratio to your taste.
- Experiment with Toppings: Drizzle with a little melted chocolate or caramel after baking for an indulgent touch.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days to maintain their crisp texture.
Enjoy your sweet and crispy creation! 🍴
