Homemade tortilla bowls!
It’s easy to make your own tortilla bowls! First turn a muffin tin upside down. Then take a regular size soft flour tortilla and fold it up around the base (see photo, left).
There’s need to grease the muffin tin, the cooked tortillas will just lift straight off. Bake in the oven at 180°C for approx 6-8 mins, until lightly browned. Just keep a close eye to check they don’t burn.
Repeat with remaining tortillas, then put to one side ready to fill and serve!
If you have large soft flour tortillas, then cut into quarters (like a pizza). Curl up each quarter and cook inside a muffin tin.
