Cut the Tortillas: Start by cutting the tortillas into your desired chip size. Eighths work well to create a classic chip shape. This can be easily done by stacking the tortillas and cutting them with a sharp knife or pizza cutter.

Oil and Season: Lightly spray or brush the tortilla pieces with cooking spray or olive oil. Then, sprinkle them with salt and any additional seasonings you like. Make sure they are evenly coated for the best flavor.

Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). This helps the chips cook evenly and become crisp.

Arrange in the Air Fryer: Place the tortilla pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding, as this can lead to uneven cooking. You might need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.

Cook: Air fry the tortilla chips for about 4-6 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. It’s a good idea to check them halfway through and shake the basket or flip the chips to ensure they cook evenly.

Cool and Crisp: Once the chips are done, let them cool for a few minutes. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.

Serve: Enjoy your homemade tortilla chips with your favorite dips like salsa, guacamole, or queso.
