Store leftover baked tortillas in a ziplock bag with a paper towel. The towel absorbs excess moisture, preventing sogginess. They’ll reheat in 30 seconds flat.
Want a browned, almost-fried finish? Brush them with bacon fat or avocado oil. Both have high smoke points, so they crisp without burning. Your taste buds will thank you.

For a sweet twist, brush with cinnamon butter and bake for 3 minutes. Serve with honey and fresh fruit. You just invented dessert tortillas, and no one is judging you.
Use the oven method for taco shells, too. Fold tortillas over the bars of your oven rack (yes, they’ll hold shape). Bake for 5 minutes, and you’ve got crunchy shells without deep frying.
The Perfect Pairing
These tortillas are made for a generous scoop of refried beans, a handful of cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. They also love a simple butter and salt treatment.
They’re a blank canvas. Fill them with leftover chili, scrambled eggs, or even peanut butter and jelly. The oven gives them structural integrity, so they hold up to any filling.
And don’t forget dip. A warm tortilla torn into strips is the ultimate vehicle for guacamole, salsa, or queso. It’s communal eating at its best.
