Baked Corn Tortilla Chips
Make your own healthy baked tortilla chips! So easy and fun, you’ll wonder why you never thought of it.
This is a very straight-forward easy recipe. But so delicious! I do believe that tortilla chips and fresh salsa, or even better, guacamole, are one of the best parts of warmer weather.
Add an ice cold beer and you don’t even need dinner. I bought corn tortillas for fajitas the other night and I wasn’t really feeling them, so they got turned into chips. Best decision ever.
These would be great alone (obviously) or with any of your favorite Mexican dinners. Like Southwestern Salad Bowls with Chipotle Mustard Vinaigrette. Or Southwestern Farro Salad Recipe with Poblanos. Or Fajita Stuffed Chicken. Or even White Chicken Chili! And definitely Slow Cooker Salsa Chicken {Taco Slop}.
Baked Corn Tortilla Chips
Make your own healthy baked tortilla chips! So easy and fun, you'll wonder why you never thought of it.
Ingredients
- 1 package corn tortillas
- non-stick cooking spray
- salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Cut each tortilla into 8 wedges.
- Spread out on a large baking sheet in a single layer (important!).
- Spray with cooking spray, sprinkle with salt, and bake for 12-18 minutes, rotating pan once. I know that sounds like a big time span, but you’ll want to keep an eye on them after 12 minutes, checking on them every two minutes.

Husband’s take: Loves them! I’ve made baked tortilla chips with flour tortillas and we agree that we like corn tortillas much better.
Changes I would make: None are necessary, but I can’t wait to play around different seasonings. I’m thinking a touch of lime would be great, or a little chili powder, or some cumin. The possibilities are endless!
Difficulty: Easy!

I was just wandering around the MarxFoods site and ohgoodgolly they have not just Habanero Salt and Green Chile Salt, but Lime Salt too! I think any of them would be perfect for these. Thanks for sharing the recipe…found it just in time for Cinco de Mayo! :)
This is the time of year when I would consider this an exceptional dinner…cold beer, homemade chips and fresh salsa and guac!? I’m in.
Love this! I am sure I will share this soon!
I love homemade chips but being the unhealthy gal that I am, I always fry them!
Might be simple but very delicious! I made these and had pulled pork BBQ nachos!Made me not feel as guilty! I need a new box of SoCal Avocados! Great idea Rachel, and I also love your sites new look!
We’ve been making chips this way for the past couple weeks. Ever since I forgot to buy tortilla chips and we had an evening craving for chips and salsa. Love them!
