Crunchy and packed full of flavour, these homemade tortilla chips are the perfect way to use up leftover tortillas. Super quick and easy to make, they make a brilliant snack, appetiser, or side dish. Did I mention you can also customise the flavours by adjusting the seasonings you use?

My favourite way to enjoy these is with ‘picky bits’ which is basically just chopped-up veggies, and any other finger foods we have in the fridge that need eating, alongside an arrangement of dips! We’re talking buffalo ranch, sweet chilli sauce and whipped feta!

📋 Ingredients

A wide, overhead shot of the ingredients for Baked Tortilla Chips. They are laid out on a wooden cutting board. They are as follows: corn tortilla wraps, oil, salt, garlic powder, and paprika.

Oil – Use a neutral oil like avocado, vegetable, or sunflower oil.

Seasonings – We’re using a blend of paprika, garlic powder, and salt.

How to make it:

***Full recipe with detailed steps in the recipe card at the end of this post***

  1. Slice the tortillas into 6 triangle shapes.
  2. Toss the tortilla slices in a bowl with the oil and seasonings and mix until fully and evenly coated.
  3. Place them in a single layer on a lined baking tray and cook in the oven until crisp.
  4. Let them cool down before serving with your favourite dip.

Pro Tip

Stack the tortillas on top of each other before slicing them into six triangle shapes, so all your chips will be an even size.

If you want to add a little bit of smoky, spicy flavour to the chips, add a pinch of dried chilli flakes and smoked paprika to your seasoning mix.

? Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make them ahead?

Yes, once cooled, store in an airtight container at room temperature. They should stay crisp for 5-7 days.

Can I use wheat tortillas instead of corn?

Yes. Wheat tortillas are usually bigger than corn tortillas (at least they are in the UK), so each one will make a few more chips. If the tortillas are bigger, then you will need to increase the oil and spice amounts, or reduce the tortillas by one or two.
They should take the same amount of time in the oven.
