This is a fan favorite – easy and fun to make, and satisfyingly delicious!

You will need 4 Tortilla Bakers.

Quickly dip a tortilla in the oil and water – don’t let it soak up any water – you just want the outside to be moist.

Repeat with remaining tortillas.

Place the tortillas/bakers on a sheet pan, and bake for 5-10 minutes, until they begin to brown.
