Instructions
- Heat a dry skillet over medium-high heat. Toast the guajillo chiles for 1-2 minutes until toasted and fragrant, flipping them every 30 seconds so they don’t burn. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
- Blend the toasted chiles in batches in a spice grinder or small blender until it's a fine powder. Transfer the chili powder to a bowl.
- Add the garlic powder, oregano, cumin, coriander, cocoa powder, and ground cinnamon into the chili powder bowl and mix together until fully combined.
- Use immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature.
Notes
- Remove the seeds. Make sure to remove all the seeds from the dried chilies to keep it at a mild heat. Once the seeds are ground into a powder it's hard to mellow out the heat.
- Use the right cocoa powder. Dutch-processed cocoa powder has an earthy and darker flavor compared to natural cocoa powder, which in general is more sweet. I don’t recommend substituting natural cocoa powder, so this ingredient can be left out if you don’t have it.
- Batch it. This chili powder recipe can last up to 6 months at room temperature when sealed, and up to a year if refrigerated, making it great for batching.
- Cool the toasted peppers completely before grinding them. They crisp up as they cool, making it easier to grind into a powder.
