Ingredients
- 6 small corn or flour tortillas
- Olive oil spray or cooking spray
- Coarse salt to taste
- Optional seasonings: garlic powder chili powder, paprika, cumin, or cinnamon & sugar for sweet chips
Instructions
- Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Prepare the Tortillas:
- Cut the tortillas into 6 to 8 wedges using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter.
- Season the Tortilla Wedges:
- Lightly spray both sides of the tortilla wedges with olive oil. Sprinkle with coarse salt and any additional seasonings you prefer (e.g., garlic powder, paprika, chili powder, or cinnamon sugar for a sweet version).
- Arrange in the Air Fryer:
- Place the tortilla wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure the pieces are not overlapping to ensure even cooking.
- Cook the Chips:
- Air fry the chips at 350°F (175°C) for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, flip the chips over, spray them lightly with oil again, and add more salt if desired. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- Cool and Serve:
- Let the chips cool for a few minutes to allow them to crisp up even more. Serve with salsa, guacamole, or any dip of your choice.
Notes
- Overcrowding: For best results, avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary to ensure even crisping.
- Seasoning Variations: Feel free to get creative with your seasonings. You can use taco seasoning, paprika, cayenne pepper, or even a sweet version with cinnamon and sugar.
- Storage: Store leftover chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2-3 days. To refresh them, place them back in the air fryer for 1-2 minutes.
