Cinnamon Sugar Jack o Lantern Tortilla
This Cinnamon and Sugar Jack o Lantern Tortilla is a fun and easy treat for Halloween and only requires 4 ingredients.
I love making fun holiday treats with my kids, and bonus points if the treat is easy and has minimal ingredients.
The inspiration for these cinnamon sugar jack o lanterns came from my Halloween quesadillas. Except these have a sweet taste and remind me of bunelos.
Ingredients
The ingredients for Cinnamon Sugar Jack o Lantern Tortillas are simple.
You’ll need Flour Tortillas, Melted Butter, Cinnamon and Sugar.
I suggest using store bought flour tortillas, and preferably the ones that are thicker and softer. While I like the thin tortillas for tacos, the softer ones crisp up more when baked.
If you love the taste of cinnamon, try my Cinnamon French Toast Bake.
How to Make
Carve out the jack o lantern face on each tortilla. You can use a small knife or butter knife if kids are doing it.
Get creative and make different eyes and mouths for the jack o lantern.
Place the tortillas on a baking rack, along with the scraps, don’t toss them!
Use a pastry brush and brush melted butter on each tortilla. Flip the tortilla over and brush butter on the other side.
Air Fry or Bake at 350° F for 8 minutes or until the tortilla is golden and crispy. You may need to flip the tortilla over halfway to get both sides crispy.
Once the tortillas are done baking, brush more melted butter on the top and immediately sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
These Cinnamon Sugar Jack o Lantern Tortillas are best eaten right away. They are the perfect size treat for both kids and adults!
