While corn tortillas are the reigning champs of savory snacks, flour tortillas bring a uniquely sweet twist that pairs perfectly with a variety of fruit and dessert dips. The beauty of this recipe lies in its simplicity: a brush of melted butter, a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar, and a quick bake transform ordinary tortillas into an extraordinary treat.
The secret to achieving that perfect crunch? It’s all in the baking! By baking the tortillas instead of frying them, you create a healthier alternative without sacrificing flavor or texture. Plus, these chips come out golden brown and wonderfully flaky, making them an irresistible addition to any dessert table.

1 teaspoon cinnamon

Notes
- Taco-sized flour tortillas work best; most packages contain 8-10 tortillas. If you're expecting a crowd, feel free to double the recipe—just use two baking trays.
- Serving Suggestion: Pair these chips with sweet dips like cannoli dip or peanut butter dip, or load them up with ice cream and toppings for a delectable dessert!
- Store any leftover chips in an airtight container at room temperature. If they soften, simply pop them back in the oven for a few minutes to regain their crunch.
