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.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
