Ingredients

• 6 pieces Flour tortillas
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
• 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

Using a star-shaped cookie cutter, cut out star shapes from the flour tortillas. Gather any scraps for another use like homemade tortilla chips.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Brush both sides of each tortilla star lightly with the seasoned olive oil mixture.

Step 5

Arrange the tortilla stars in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet without overlapping.

Step 6

If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the tortilla stars for added flavor.

Step 7

Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the stars are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them, as they can burn quickly toward the end of the baking time.

Step 8

Remove the tortilla stars from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving.

Step 9

Serve the tortilla stars as a fun snack or pair them with dips like salsa, guacamole, or queso for extra enjoyment.
