Description
These Air Fryer Tortilla Chips are perfectly crispy, lightly salted, and made with just a few ingredients! They’re a healthier alternative to traditional fried chips and come together in minutes. Great for dipping in salsa, guac, or queso—or enjoying all on their own.
Ingredients
-
6 small corn tortillas
-
1 tablespoon olive oil (or avocado oil)
-
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
-
Optional: pinch of chili powder, cumin, or garlic powder for extra flavor
Instructions
-
Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
-
Cut tortillas into triangles (like you would slice a pizza—each tortilla makes 6–8 chips).
-
In a bowl, toss the tortilla pieces with olive oil and salt. Add any optional seasonings if using.
-
Arrange chips in a single layer in the air fryer basket (you may need to do this in batches).
-
Air fry for 5–7 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
-
Let chips cool slightly—they’ll continue to crisp as they cool. Serve with your favorite dip!
Notes
-
For extra crispy chips, make sure they’re in a single layer and not overlapping.
-
You can use flour tortillas, but they cook a bit faster—check at 4–5 minutes.
-
Add lime juice before air frying for a zesty twist.
