Ingredients for Baked Cinnamon Tortillas

  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted

How to Make Baked Cinnamon Tortillas

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, cinnamon, and sugar until well combined.
  3. Lay tortillas flat on a baking sheet.
  4. Brush each tortilla generously with the cinnamon-butter mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy. Flip halfway through for even cooking.
  6. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
  7. Optional: Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra decadent treat!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
