- 6 flour tortillas 8" round or similar size
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1-2 tablespoons water
Slice the tortillas in half evenly.
Mix the flour and water in a small dish.
Place mixture with your finger onto one corner of the tortilla and wrap it into a cone shape, and press the "glued" corner down firmly.
Finish all the tortillas.
Bake the tortillas empty or full.
If they are full you can roll a piece of foil in a log shape and rest the cones on it so they don't spill out.
Or if you bake them empty you can bake them with the point up, you can fill them with tin foil if they are flimsy, some tortillas are thicker than others.
Bake for a few minutes at 400° or under a broiler on high, they will only take a few minutes to crisp up and become "toasted".
if you're baking them filled you can reduce the temperature to 375° or higher if you'll be being them longer.
The tortillas are done baking when they are golden and the "glued" areas is dry.
