"Do you want a sure-fire way to get your kids excited about going to the breakfast table to eat their oatmeal? This recipe may be your answer. I follow a few blogs & occ share what captures my attention. Blogsters also share w/each other. For example, “Fruit Salsa & Cinnamon Chips” is a recipe shared by Jen Nikolaus of the “Yummy Healthy Easy” blog w/the “I Heart Naptime” blog by Jamielyn that I follow. The fruit salsa seemed routine to me & the seasons here in Iceland are so variable that I doubted it would be useful for me, BUT the cinnamon chips work all yr-round as dippers for sweet treats, kid snacks & to add crunch & sweetness to oatmeal. All that said, I wanted to share the idea w/you. I entered the prep steps as given. BUT IMO they're more complex than needed. So please read “NOTE – My Method” at the end of the prep directions. Enjoy!"

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350F. Cover a large baking sheet w/parchment paper.
Step 2
On a large plate, combine the sugar & cinnamon. Spray each tortilla (front & back) & carefully lay on the plate, one at a time. Move around lightly to get the cinnamon & sugar to adhere to the tortilla, then flip to coat the other side.
Step 3
W/a pizza cutter, cut cinnamon & sugar tortilla in half & then each half into 4 pieces, creating 8 slices per tortilla. Spread out on the baking sheet.
Step 4
Repeat w/all tortillas & then place in the oven for 8-10 min. Pull baking sheet from oven & set aside to cool.
Step 5
NOTE: My Method – I’d start by cutting the tortillas, spray the cut pieces on parchment paper, dust both sides on the parchment paper w/the sugar & cinnamon mixture using a powdered sugar shaker, fine mesh shaker or even a fine mesh tea-strainer & finally transfer them to a parchment-lined baking sheet, etc = Less handling of the chips & no dredging.
