Notes

  • Storage
  • Storage
  • Let the chips cool completely to room temperature before placing them in storage. This will prevent condensation from building up and making them stale.
  • Homemade corn tortilla chips will keep well in an airtight container or ziplock bag for up to 5 days.
  • Air fryer tortilla chips: Air fry lightly oiled tortilla triangles at 350°F in a single layer until golden brown and crispy, 5 to 7 minutes. Check on them as they cook to ensure they do not over cook.
  • Let the chips cool completely to room temperature before placing them in storage. This will prevent condensation from building up and making them stale.
  • Homemade corn tortilla chips will keep well in an airtight container or ziplock bag for up to 5 days.
