Homemade Tortilla Chips (Baked!)
This easy recipe for homemade baked tortilla chips (made with olive oil) will be your new healthy snacking addiction!
Servings: 80 chips
Ingredients
- 10 small corn tortillas
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- Salt
- ½ lime, juiced optional
- Seasonings of choice optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Slice corn tortillas into wedges. I like to slice tortillas into quarters, and then slice the quarters in half.
- Place wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Mix olive oil with lime juice (optional). Using a basting brush, brush wedges with a very light layer of olive oil. Flip wedges over and brush other sides with a very light layer of olive oil.
- Bake chips for 8-10 minutes until crispy. No need to flip the chips in the oven.
- Salt and season chips (with seasoning of choice) immediately out of the oven. Be generous with the salt!
- Repeat for consecutive batches. Best served warm (with salsa or guac!).
- Store extras in an airtight container. Over time, the chips will lose a bit of their crispiness.

Notes
Too much olive oil can cause the chips to not crisp up in the oven! No oil can cause the same problem too! A little oil is perfect.
