Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Flour tortilla
  • Cinnamon sugar
  • Powdered sugar optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a microwaveable dish, melt the butter.
  • With a silicone pastry brush, brush butter on bottom of tortilla and generously season with cinnamon sugar.
  • Repeat previous step for the top of the tortilla and place on baking sheet.
  • Bake in oven for 8-10 minutes or until tortilla is bubbly and browned.
  • Remove from oven and sprinkle with powdered sugar (if desired) before serving.

Notes

  1. Evenly Coat Tortilla: Use a silicone pastry brush to ensure that the melted butter and cinnamon sugar are evenly distributed over the entire surface of the tortilla. This helps to create a uniform flavor and texture throughout the elephant ears. Pay special attention to the edges to prevent them from becoming dry or overly crispy during baking.
  2. Monitor Baking Time: Keep a close eye on the elephant ears while they are baking to prevent them from burning. Baking times may vary depending on the thickness of the tortilla and the accuracy of your oven. Aim to bake the elephant ears until they are golden brown and bubbly, but not overly crisp or darkened. Adjust the baking time as needed to achieve the desired level of crispiness.
  3. Serve Immediately: Elephant ears are best enjoyed fresh from the oven when they are still warm and crispy. Sprinkle powdered sugar over the elephant ears just before serving, if desired, for an extra touch of sweetness. Serve the elephant ears immediately to ensure they retain their crispy texture and delicious flavor.
