Baked Taco Shells Are Just as Good as Fried
Report
These baked taco shells are much healthier than the fried version, plus they are super easy to make.

Ingredients
- 6-8 corn tortillas
- oil (or cooking spray)
- chili powder (optional)
- salt (optional)
Instructions
- Brush a light coating of oil onto the tortillas (or use cooking spray).
- If you want to give them some flavoring, add dashes of chili powder and salt.
- Place each tortilla over two oven rungs. (You can optionally place a roasting pan or foil on a lower rack to catch any oil dripping down.)
- Bake for 10 minutes at 375F for a crispy but pliable version.
- Bake for 12-13 minutes for a crispier version.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- Old tortillas will crisp up more readily than new tortillas. If you're using newer tortillas, let them sit on the counter and dry out for a bit before putting them in the oven.
- Keep a close eye on them the first time you make them as ovens can vary.
- Depending on how much oil you use, they might drip a little. You can optionally use a roasting pan or foil on a lower rack to catch the oil if you want.
- They are best served immediately. If they've been sitting for awhile they'll get chewy, but you can always put them back in the oven for an additional 30-60 seconds.
