Can I use corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas?
For this recipe, I would definitely suggest using the flour tortillas over the corn tortillas as they will puff up a little better and absorb more of the cinnamon sugar mixture.
However, you can use the corn tortillas if that is all you have because they will still fry in the air fryer.
The perfect cinnamon and sugar ratio
While you can buy cinnamon sugar mixture already made up in the store, it is also super simple to make at home with just cinnamon sugar and it is a lot more cost-effective.
The Endless Meal has a great ratio of the cinnamon and sugar mixture that would work great with this recipe.

How to Make Air Fryer Churro Chips:
Step 1: Prep the churro chips
When making the chips you will use uncooked flour tortillas and cut them into 6-8 pieces per tortilla depending on the size.
I like to layer the tortillas about 3 at a time to make cutting them easier.
Step 2: Season the tortillas
Once the tortillas are you will need to lightly spray them with your oil sprayer and then generously sprinkle the cinnamon and sugar mixture on top of the tortillas.
You won’t need to bake these completely in a single layer, however, try not to overcrowd the air fryer. You may have to air fry in batches.
Flip the tortillas over and then add more cinnamon sugar to the tortillas and spray them one last time.
Step 3: Air fry the tortilla chips
After the tortillas have been well sprinkled with the cinnamon sugar mixture place the tortillas into the air fryer basket and turn the air fryer on at 400 degrees F or 200 degrees C.
Cook the cinnamon sugar tortillas for about 4-5 minutes or until they are crispy to your liking.
Then simply serve and enjoy, maybe even with some chocolate sauce or Nutella!
