Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cinnamon sugar
- 4-6 flour tortillas
- 1/2 stick butter
Step-by-step Directions
Step 1: Preparing the Tortillas
Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Meanwhile, place each tortilla on a flat surface. Melt the butter and use a brush to evenly coat both sides of each tortilla with the melted butter. This helps the cinnamon sugar adhere well and promotes even crisping in the oven.
Step 2: Applying Cinnamon Sugar
Generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over one side of each buttered tortilla. Flip the tortillas and repeat the process on the other side, ensuring thorough coverage. The more evenly you distribute the cinnamon sugar, the better the flavor and texture in the final product.
Step 3: Baking
Arrange the tortillas in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 5-6 minutes or until they are crisp and golden brown. Monitor them closely to prevent burning.
Step 4: Cooling and Serving
Remove the baked tortillas from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet. Once cooled, break them into bite-sized pieces. They can be enjoyed as is or paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat.
