How to Make Baked Tortilla Chips in the Oven

We love uncomplicated recipes and like to our Roasted Butter Beans this vegan recipe uses minimal ingredients. When I make these crunchy baked tortilla chips, I utilise the whole package so we tin can eat them over a few weeks!

These corn tortillas are healthier than your shop bought tortilla fries simply still contain a minor corporeality of oil and table salt. I have used both olive oil and vegetable oil to test these and they do get crunchier with the vegetable oil but if you just have olive oil and so that does work!

Other than the corn tortillas, salt and oil you do not need any other ingredients! 3 ingredients only in this vegan bootleg tortilla chip recipe and y'all will have the perfect chip for taco night.

To broil your tortilla chips I recommend using a foil lined large jelly whorl pan. I accept tried both a silpat mat and parchment paper and foil makes a crispier flake! To save fourth dimension when I make these, I foil line ii big blistering pans, evenly space chips out and bake them on the top and lesser oven racks! A word of caution here though! Gear up a time to rotate them otherwise the bottom rack volition go done much faster. I also recommend flipping the chips when they are halfway done so they become evenly crisped on both sides.
