Variations & Substitutions
Corn tortillas. You can also use flour tortillas but they might result in a different texture. Avocado oil. Swap it with canola oil, grapeseed oil, or vegetable oil. I prefer using a spray oil to make it easier to apply it to the tortillas. Salt. You can also season it with other spices, like chili powder, paprika, or garlic powder, to add more flavor.
📖 How to make air fryer tortilla chips
Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; chips need space for air circulation to crisp up properly. Work in batches if needed to maintain quality. To achieve a restaurant-style chip, sprinkle the chips with lime juice and chili powder after cooking while they are still hot. Cool the chips on a wire rack instead of a flat surface to prevent steam from making them soggy as they cool. If making in batches, let each batch cool completely before storing to prevent steam from making the chips lose their crunch.
