Christmas Eve Cinnamon Crisps are a simple yet enchanting holiday treat, perfect for those cozy moments before the festivities begin. Light, sweet, and irresistibly crunchy, they capture the nostalgic warmth of cinnamon sugar with minimal effort. Whether you’re preparing snacks for family movie night or adding something special to a dessert platter, these crisps deliver pure holiday charm.
What makes this recipe especially delightful is its versatility. Flour tortillas transform into crisp, golden pastries with just a brush of butter and a generous coating of cinnamon sugar. They bake quickly, making them ideal for last-minute holiday cravings. Optional touches like nutmeg or vanilla create an aromatic depth that fills the kitchen with festive fragrance.
Their ease also makes them a fun project for families and kids. Cutting the tortillas into triangles, strips, or whimsical Christmas shapes adds an element of creativity that makes each batch unique. Once baked, the crisps cool into a perfectly crunchy texture that pairs beautifully with sweet dips.
