Ingredients
Scale
Cinnamon Chips
- 6 6-inch flour tortillas
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
Fruit Salsa
- 2 1/2 tablespoons honey
- 2 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 1/2 tablespoons strawberry preserves or seedless raspberry preserves
- 16 ounces strawberries, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 2 mangos or 2 peeled peaches, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 3 kiwis, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1/2 pint fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the cinnamon chips.
- Mix Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon, then set aside for coating the tortillas.
- Prepare Tortillas: Place the flour tortillas on a cookie sheet, brush each tortilla with the melted butter using a basting brush for easy application, and sprinkle evenly with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Cut Tortillas: Using a pizza cutter or a knife, slice each tortilla into 6 pie-shaped pieces, creating your cinnamon chips.
- Bake Chips: Bake the tortilla pieces in the oven for 12 minutes until crisp and slightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
- Make Salsa Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, fresh lemon juice, and preserves until well combined. Set aside.
- Combine Fruit: In a large serving bowl, combine all the chopped fruits: strawberries, mangos or peaches, kiwis, and blueberries.
- Toss Fruit Salsa: Pour the honey-lemon-preserve dressing over the fruit and gently stir to coat all the pieces evenly.
- Chill and Serve: Chill the fruit salsa in the refrigerator until ready to serve (best within two to three hours). Serve the chilled fruit salsa alongside the homemade cinnamon chips for dipping.
Notes
- Feel free to substitute or add other fruits like apples, raspberries, blackberries, or nectarines to customize your salsa.
- Using a basting brush makes it much easier to evenly butter the tortillas before adding cinnamon sugar.
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup, but be cautious when using a pizza cutter on mats.
- If you don't have preserves on hand, you can substitute with brown sugar or simply use double the amount of honey for sweetness.
- The cinnamon chips can be made a few days in advance and stored in an airtight container to maintain their crispness.
