Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 5 pcs Small Tortillas
  • 1/4 cup Melted Butter
  • 1/4 cup Cinnamon
  • 5 tbsp  Sugar
  • 1.5 cup Heavy Cream (cold)
  • 1/3 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups  Strawberries (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup  Chocolate Syrup

Method
 

  1. Mix together the cinnamon and sugar in a bowl and then pour it onto a large plate.
  2. Lightly brush both sides of each tortilla with melted butter one at a time. Then lay each side of the buttered tortilla in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat all over.
  3. Bend each one into a taco shape and use each of the tortillas to prop each other up in the air fryer basket. (If you have a leger basket, you can do more, if a smaller, less) It’s ok for the tortillas to touch, it won’t affect their ability to toast.
  4. Air fry the cinnamon sugar tortillas for 10 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  5. While the tortillas are frying, make the whipped cream.
  6. Pour the cold heavy cream in a large bowl and beat with a handheld or stand mixer on high until soft peaks form. Then add powdered sugar and vanilla and continue beating until stiff.
  7. Once the tortilla tacos are done cooking, remove them to a plate. As soon as they are cool enough to work with, add chopped strawberries to each dessert taco base, the whipped cream and drizzle each one with chocolate syrup and sprinkle on a few additional strawberries to each one.
