Vegan Tortilla Chips
These Vegan Tortilla Chips are made by slicing corn tortillas into triangles, brushing them with lime juice and seasoning with salt and optional garlic powder, then baking until crisp and golden. The process yields restaurant-style chips that emphasize fresh citrus brightness and simple seasoning with a crunchy texture ideal for snacking or dipping.
Ingredients
- 8 ix inch corn tortillas
- 2 tablespoons lime juice approx. 1 large lime
- ½ teaspoon salt sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Stack the corn tortillas in an even pile on a cutting board. Then use a pizza cutter to slice them into four quarters. (If using larger wraps, slice into six pieces instead.)
- Arrange the cut tortilla chips in an even layer on your baking sheets. Then brush each one with lime juice and evenly sprinkle with salt and garlic powder, if using.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, checking often towards the end of cooking. You want them golden brown and crispy, but not overly done.
Notes
- Use six-inch corn tortillas and cut each into four quarters for ideal chip size and crispness.
- If using larger tortillas, cut into six pieces to maintain manageable chip portions.
- Monitor closely towards the end of baking, as chips can quickly go from perfectly crisp to overdone.
- Set an oven timer or reminders to check chips frequently to avoid burning.
