How to Make Halloween Tortilla Chips
- Preheat the oven: Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cut the tortillas: Use small Halloween cookie cutters to cut the tortillas into shapes such as bats, ghosts, pumpkins, or skulls.
- Season the chips: Arrange the tortilla shapes in a single layer on the baking sheets. Lightly brush them with olive oil and sprinkle with chili powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- Bake: Bake for 7–10 minutes, or until the chips are crisp and lightly golden around the edges. Keep a close eye on them because they can brown quickly.
