These golden brown treats are so easy to make that you’ll wonder why you’ve been wasting time and money on store-bought snacks for so long. With our simple steps and a few easy ingredients, you’ll be chowing down on these churro chips faster than you can say “Viva la fiesta!”

So, grab your sombreros and let’s get this fiesta started in the kitchen!

**Ingredients:**

  • 6 burrito-size flour tortillas
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil, for frying, or more as needed
  • 1 cup granulated sugar, for coating
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

**Instructions:**

**Step 1: Get Your Tortillas Ready**
Grab those beautiful burrito-size tortillas and cut them into 8 triangles each. BAM! You’ve got yourself a crowd of tortilla triangles ready to become churro chips.

**Step 2: Let’s Get Frying!**
In a large skillet or deep fryer, pour in enough oil to reach a depth of 1/2 – 1 inch. Heat that oil until it reaches 375°F (190°C). Feeling fancy? Use a thermometer to be extra precise!

**Step 3: Fry Time!**
Drop those tortilla triangles into the hot oil. Fry them in batches of 4-5 at a time, for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until they’re golden brown and crispy. Remember, we’re looking for that perfect churro crunch.

**Step 4: Drain and Sugar-Coat**
Once they’re done basking in the oil, use a slotted spoon to carefully remove the churro chips and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate.

In a shallow dish, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Get ready to give your churro chips a sweet, irresistible coating!

**Step 5: Roll in the Sweetness**
Take each warm churro chip and roll it around in the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Make sure they get a good coating on all sides. It’s like giving them a warm, sugary hug!

**Step 6: Fiesta Time!**
Serve these churro chips while they’re still warm and crispy. Grab your favorite dipping sauce, whether it’s chocolate, caramel, or even a tangy fruit salsa. You can even go crazy and create a dessert nacho platter, drizzled with all sorts of sweet goodness and topped with a scoop of ice cream. Oh, the possibilities are endless!

And there you have it, folks! Churro chips that will make your taste buds do a little dance. They’re perfect for snacking, dipping, and making your fiesta extra special. So, let’s raise our sombreros and munch on these delicious treats!

**Chef’s Tip:**

Feeling a little adventurous? You can switch up the spices in the sugar coating. Try adding a pinch of chili powder for a touch of heat, or a dash of nutmeg for a warm, cozy flavor. The possibilities are endless!
