  • Author: Lina
  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description

A quick and easy after-school snack featuring crunchy cinnamon sugar tortilla chips served with a fresh, zesty fruit salsa. Ready in under 30 minutes with minimal active prep time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6–8 small flour tortillas (6-inch)
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1 medium mango, diced
  • 1 cup pineapple, diced
  • 1 cup strawberries, hulled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons red onion, finely minced
  • 1 tablespoon cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small shallow bowl, mix granulated sugar, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper (if using).
  3. Melt the butter and brush one side of each tortilla generously with the melted butter.
  4. Cut each tortilla into 6 or 8 triangles.
  5. Dip each triangle into the cinnamon-sugar mixture, coating both sides, and place on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Watch closely after 6 minutes.
  7. While chips bake, combine diced mango, pineapple, strawberries, and red onion in a mixing bowl.
  8. Add lime juice and cilantro to the fruit mixture and toss gently to combine.
  9. Let the salsa sit for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  10. Remove chips from oven and let cool completely on the pan to ensure crispness.
  11. Serve chips with the fruit salsa on the side for dipping.

Notes

Chips continue to crisp as they cool; do not eat immediately after baking. Store chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Salsa can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 2 days. If using canned pineapple, drain thoroughly to prevent soggy chips.
