Air Fryer Tortilla Chips (3 Ingredients)
Description
Air Fryer Tortilla Chips (3 Ingredients) relies on simple preparation of cutting corn tortillas into triangles and seasoning them with avocado oil and coarse sea salt before cooking. The air fryer cooks the chips evenly at 350°F for 8 to 10 minutes, producing a crisp texture without deep frying. Regular tossing during cooking ensures all the chips crisp up nicely without burning. This method yields crunchy chips ideal for dipping or snacking.
The flavor is light and salty, allowing the natural corn taste to come through while enjoying a crisp bite. Air frying avoids excess oil, lending a cleaner flavor compared to traditional frying methods. The coarse sea salt adds a pleasant crunch that complements the chip texture.
These air fryer tortilla chips are great for serving alongside salsa, guacamole, or other dips. They also provide a versatile snack option that can be seasoned further if desired. Because the recipe is simple and uses common pantry ingredients, it’s a convenient way to make fresh chips at home without specialized equipment beyond an air fryer.
Ingredients
- 12 corn tortillas
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tbsp sea salt coarse
Instructions
- Cut the tortillas into triangles.
- Spray the air fryer basket with oil. Add the cut tortilla triangles, spray them with a bit more oil to coat and season with salt, to taste.
