Homemade Taco Chips are a deliciously simple and quick snack that the whole family will enjoy. You control the ingredients and you make them fresh!
The flavor is fabulous because it comes from my Homemade Taco Seasoning.
These chips have tacos’ cumin and pepper flavor with a little extra added cheesiness. (Nope! There isn’t any cheese. They only taste like it. They’re 100% dairy-free.)
Did I mention they are easy to make? Yeah! Your kids will be making these. They’re that simple. Crunchy, taco-y, cheesy goodness! What’s not to love?
Homemade Taco chips are one of our family’s favorite savory, crunchy snacks. But, if you love crunchy, and want to satisfy a sweet tooth, be sure to check out Jennifer’s Unicorn Popcorn over at a Magical Mess.
How to Make Homemade Taco Chips
Preheat your oven and arrange six corn tortillas on a baking sheet.
Use a pastry brush [affiliate link] to apply oil to the tops and bottoms of each tortilla. Trying to keep it uniform across the whole surface, all the way to the edges, will help your taco chips to bake up to their crispy best.
Sprinkle my Homemade Taco Seasoning over both sides of each tortilla.
Cut each tortilla into eight triangles. I use a pizza cutter for this, but you could use a sharp knife if that’s all you have. This recipe makes 48 taco chips. Use the multiplier in the recipe card if you need to double or triple the batch.
Bake, serve and enjoy!
What to Serve with Homemade Taco Chips
These Taco Chips are fabulous with my delicious 10 Minute Taco Dip.
Try them with any of these tasty dips and toppings, too.
We also love homemade taco chips for nachos, crumbled on salads and inserted into a Chicken Crunchwrap Supreme.
And if you’ve never tried my friend Chichi’s Mexican Tuna Salad, you must make some to enjoy with these crunchy taco chips. What a sensation!
Homemade Taco Chips are also perfect with my Jalapeno Popper Dip, for scooping up big bites of the Best Easy Chili Recipe and for adding to Charcuterie Cups for any occasion.
