“Keto Cinnamon ‘Sugar’ Chips”
These are the snack that makes you forget regular cinnamon toast ever existed.
You get golden, ultra-crispy chips dusted in cinnamon and sweetener that shatter when you bite them, just like the pic. They’re sweet, buttery, and have that warm cinnamon-sugar flavor that tastes like churros, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and taco shop dessert chips all at once.
Ingredients (Makes 1 big bowl, ∼4 servings)
For the Chips:
3 low-carb tortillas, 3-4g net carbs each like Mission Zero Carb
3 tbsp butter, melted
¼ cup powdered allulose or erythritol, powdered blends best
1 tbsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt
Optional Dips:
2 tbsp sugar-free chocolate chips, melted
¼ cup heavy cream, whipped
2 oz cream cheese + 1 tbsp powdered sweetener + splash vanilla
Step-by-Step (Ready in 10 min)
Air Fryer Method – Fastest:
Cut: Stack tortillas and slice into 8 wedges each, then cut wedges in half for chip-size pieces like the pic.
Mix coating: In a small bowl, mix powdered sweetener, cinnamon, and salt.
Butter: Toss chips with melted butter in a large bowl until coated.
Air fry: Air fry at 350°F for 4-5 min, shaking basket halfway. They go from golden to burnt fast after 4 min.
Toss: Immediately toss hot chips in cinnamon mixture. The heat helps it stick like the pic.
Cool: Let cool 5 min. They crisp up as they cool.
Oven Method:
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line baking sheet with parchment.
Follow steps 1-3 above.
Spread chips in single layer. Bake 6-8 min until golden and crisp.
Toss in cinnamon mixture while hot.
Pro Tips to Level Up
Powdered Sweetener Only: Granular sweetener = gritty. Blend it first or buy powdered. Allulose tastes the most like real sugar and doesn’t recrystallize.
Extra Crispy: Don’t overcrowd the air fryer. Work in 2 batches so air can circulate. Soggy chips = sad chips.
Churro Mode: Add ¼ tsp vanilla extract to the melted butter. Add a pinch of nutmeg to the cinnamon mix. Tastes exactly like a churro.
Savory Swap: Skip sweetener. Use garlic powder + parmesan + Italian herbs for keto Doritos. Or chili lime seasoning for Tajín vibes.
Storage: Keep in an airtight container or ziplock at room temp 4 days. If they soften, air fry 2 min at 350°F to re-crisp.
Don’t Burn: They look pale and then brown in 30 seconds. Pull them when edges are golden like the pic. They darken as they cool.
