Ingredients
Scale
Chips
- 4 flour tortillas (use gluten-free or grain-free as needed)
- Avocado or olive oil spray
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare Workspace: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Cut Spooky Shapes: Stack 2 to 3 tortillas and use Halloween-themed cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes. Press firmly to ensure clean edges. Carefully arrange the shapes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, making sure they don’t overlap for even baking.
- Oil and Season: Lightly spray both sides of each tortilla shape with avocado or olive oil spray to help them crisp up and enhance flavor. Sprinkle salt evenly over the top to season the chips perfectly.
- Bake to Crispy Perfection: Place the baking sheets in the oven and bake for 8 to 12 minutes until chips are golden brown and crispy. Keep a close watch to prevent burning, as baking times may vary depending on your oven. Rotate the baking sheets halfway through to ensure even browning.
- Cool and Serve: Once baked, immediately transfer the chips to a wire cooling rack. Allow them to cool completely so they get extra crisp. Serve them fresh or store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 to 4 days to keep them crunchy.
Notes
- Use gluten-free or grain-free tortillas if you need a special dietary option.
- Keep a close eye on the chips during baking as they can quickly burn after reaching golden brown.
- Experiment with different seasonings like paprika or garlic powder for a unique twist.
- Store leftover chips in an airtight container to maintain crispiness for several days.
