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

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 make it:
01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
02 - In a medium mixing bowl, gently combine strawberries, pineapple, kiwi, blueberries, apple, lime juice, honey or maple syrup, and fresh mint. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
03 - In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until thoroughly combined.
04 - Lightly brush both sides of each flour tortilla with melted butter. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over both sides.
05 - Stack the tortillas, then cut into wedge-shaped pieces. Arrange the wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets.
06 - Bake tortilla wedges in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping the chips halfway through, until golden brown and crisp. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
07 - Transfer the chilled fruit salsa to a serving bowl and surround with cinnamon sugar tortilla chips for dipping. Serve immediately for optimal crispness.
# Expert suggestions:
01 -
- Chopping fruit on a summer afternoon makes your kitchen feel like the happiest place in town.
- You can sneak a taste of the cinnamon sugar chips every time you pass the oven—no judgment here.
02 -
- Once I stacked the chips too closely on the baking sheet, and they turned out soft—always give them breathing room.
- Letting the salsa sit for at least 10 minutes in the fridge makes every fruity bite taste brighter.
03 -
- If you use honey, drizzle it on the fruit just before serving for ultimate gloss and flavor.
- Use a pizza cutter for cutting tortillas—it’s quick, safe, and makes even wedges.
