Cinnamon Crisps

We made these one night for dessert. I accidently overcooked them a little, so they were a little more like cinnamon sugar chips.

When I was younger, my mom would make a similar thing... I think it was easier and tastes as good (or better). I'll go ahead a make a recipe for that (she always just made it... no recipe needed) - see below.

Cinnamon Crisps

Recipe from FamilyFun.go.com

Ingredients:

4 Tbsp butter
6 (6-inch) flour tortillas
2 to 4 Tbsp sugar
1/4 to 1/2 tsp cinnamon

honey

Directions:

1. Heat the oven to 450º.
2. Melt the butter in a large baking sheet in the oven, about 2 minutes.
3. Stir together the sugar and cinnamon.
4. Place the tortillas in the baking pan (they may overlap a bit), turning each once to coat both sides with butter.
5. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the tortillas.
6. Bake the tortillas until golden and puffed in spots, about 7 minutes. (you may want to move the tortillas after a few minutes in the oven, especially if there is a lot of overlapping) * Do not overcook *
7. Serve them warm - we served with honey drizzled over cinnamon crisp.

Ingredients:

flour tortillas

butter or margarine

cinnamon sugar

Directions:

1. Heat the oven to 350º.
2. Cut each flour tortillas into quarters.
3. Spread some butter on one side of each.
4. Lay buttered tortilla quarters down on a baking sheet (overlapping just a little on some corners).
5. Sprinkle tortillas with cinnamon sugar.
6. Bake until hot and as crispy as you like. (to make them cinnamon chips, cook approximately 10-12 minutes - look for edges to curl and crisp up)
7. Serve warm.

I suppose you could brush melted butter and add cinnamon sugar on each side of the tortilla quarters, then cook at 400º for 6-7 minutes.
