Brush or spray both sides of each tortilla with oil.
5 small tortillas, olive oil spray
Sprinkle salt on one side, or both sides if you prefer extra salty chips.
1 pinch coarse salt
Cut each tortilla into six wedges.
Arrange the wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
Air fry at 350°F for 5-7 minutes. Check them once or twice during cooking to ensure they are not overlapping and shake the basket if needed.

Cook in Single Layer: Arrange tortillas in one layer for even cooking. Use batches to prevent overlap.
Thicker Tortilla Adjustment: Add a minute or two for thicker tortillas.
Light Oil Coating: Lightly coat tortillas with oil using a spray or brush.
Flavor Experiments: Try seasonings like chili powder, garlic powder, or lime zest.
Shake Halfway: Halfway through, shake the basket to unstick chips.
Watch for Burning: Monitor chips towards the end to avoid burning.
Cool Before Eating: Let chips cool after cooking to increase crispness.
