How do you bake corn tortillas?

If you have some tomato paste and like the taste of tomatoes, then try this. I spread some thinly over tortillas, add a little grated cheese and bake for around ten minutes. It's like pizza, but with a very thin and crispy crust. If your husband doesn't like deep fried tortillas, then you can cut them in triangles and bake them. Then once they're baked, you can add your salt and usual dip. The dip can take away the cardboard taste.

Hi I also loved tortillas. well for me I don't know how bake any products. I just love to eat them. LOL. I don't know but i think there is a ready made tortilla out there. all you have to do is to fry them or bake them. i have not yet tried it but I think there is an available on the market.

I have often wondered this myself as I don't have a deep fat fryer.....I hope you find some sort of answer. I have tried baking them myself but like you they are pretty tasteless unless you melt cheese on them or drown them in salsa!

I think frying is the only way to have them turn out "right" but personally I like them scorched in the microwave with a slice of cheese over each one. Jalapeno jack cheese is my favorite. Sometimes they get more hard than crunchy, but I know what you mean about addicting, because even with these I have to make only a few or I will eat every single one.

Well, I got two things to say here. One, deep-frying isn't as bad for you as you may think, if done correctly. Frying in the right temperature for the right time allows for extremely little oil absorption. And if the items are drained properly, you're looking at even less oil. The water inside of the food pushes out when heated (steam), thus keeping oil from soaking into the food. Plus you can always get healthy and better-tasting oils to fry in, like peanut or olive oil. You're probably getting more oil on the baked chips by brushing than you get on them by frying. Now, of course, deep-fried Twinkies and those other American fair items are bad. But don't freak out about the chips. If I'm going to bake anything like that, I'm definitely looking for high and hot. But you're right about the flavor. The texture gets there, but the flavor stinks. And if you're going to brush them down with such and such, frying is seriously the easier, healthier, cleaner option. I make these things with masa, I'm not sure what they're called. I take the corn masa from the store, which makes tortillas with water and salt, and I press them out into little bowls. They're really thin though -- like a Tostinos scoop. But before I press them, I add a little lovin' to my dough. I like to take some chopped jalapenos and cheddar and mix it in. I'll bake them at 450 after they're pressed and fill them with chicken, refried beans or black beans, sour cream, etc. Maybe you could do something similar with your chips. Maybe put cheese and such on them before baking, or do the sprinkle before they go in. They'll still get crisp if the oven's hot enough, and heat'll open up those spices. But I say just fry them.
