Fruit Salsa with Cinnamon Chips (Printable)
Bright fruit salsa with lime and mint, served with crisp cinnamon-sugar tortilla chips for a summery dessert or snack.
# What You'll Need:
→ Fruit Salsa
01 - 1 cup strawberries, hulled and diced
02 - 1 cup pineapple, diced
03 - 1 cup kiwi, peeled and diced
04 - 1/2 cup blueberries
05 - 1 apple, peeled and finely diced
06 - 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
07 - 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
08 - 2 tablespoons fresh mint, finely chopped (optional)
→ Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Chips
09 - 6 (8-inch) flour tortillas
10 - 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
11 - 1/3 cup granulated sugar
12 - 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
# How-To Steps:
01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
02 - In a medium bowl, combine strawberries, pineapple, kiwi, blueberries, apple, fresh lime juice, honey or maple syrup, and chopped mint if using. Gently fold ingredients until evenly mixed. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
03 - In a small bowl, blend granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well combined.
04 - Brush both sides of each flour tortilla lightly with melted butter. Evenly sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture on both sides.
05 - Stack the tortillas and cut into wedges, similar to slicing a pizza. Arrange wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets.
06 - Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until golden and crisp. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
07 - Transfer chilled fruit salsa to a serving bowl and surround with cinnamon sugar tortilla chips. Serve immediately for optimal crispness.
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- The chips are so crisp they’ll practically announce themselves at the table—no deep frying required.
- You can switch up the fruit mix to match whatever looks best at the market that week, so things never get boring.
02 -
- If the chips overlap on the tray, they’ll steam and turn chewy rather than crisp.
- Letting the salsa rest for a few minutes in the fridge before serving brings all the flavors together beautifully.
03 -
- Brush the tortillas lightly—too much butter and they’ll get soggy instead of crisp.
- Taste your fruit salsa before serving since some fruits need a pinch more sweetness or lime.
