Ingredients
  

  • 8 whole grain blue corn tortillas, 6-inch diameter
  • For the Spice Coating
  • ½ tsp (2.5 ml / 0.1 fl oz) nutritional yeast
  • ¼ tsp (1.25 ml / 0 fl oz) smoked paprika
  • ¼ tsp (1.25 ml / 0 fl oz) sweet paprika
  • ¼ tsp (1.25 ml / 0 fl oz) Mexican chili powder
  • 1 pinch onion powder
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • For the most even coating, grind large-flake nutritional yeast into a fine powder using a mortar and pestle or the back of a spoon.
  • For extra crispy chips, arrange the tortilla wedges in a single, non-overlapping layer. Use two baking sheets if necessary.
  • To ensure this recipe is completely gluten-free, double-check that your corn tortillas and nutritional yeast are certified GF.
  • Store completely cooled chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain their crunch.

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F / 175°C.
  2. In a small bowl, mix all the Spice Coating together until well combined. If your nutritional yeast has large flakes, grind it into a fine powder first for better adhesion.
  3. Cut each tortilla into six triangular wedges.
  4. Arrange the wedges in a single layer on a large baking sheet. It's okay if they overlap slightly, but for maximum crispiness, try to keep them separated.
  5. Lightly spray the tortilla wedges with cooking spray.
  6. Sprinkle the Spice Coating evenly over the wedges.
  7. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the chips are crisp and the edges are lightly browned.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving with your favorite dips like guacamole or hummus.
