Ingredients
2 cups pineapple chunks, from 1 pineapple
2 cups strawberries, chopped
8 flour tortillas, 8-inch in diameter
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
6 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and sugar. Set this aside.
Cut each tortilla in half, then cut each half into thirds, creating 6 equal triangles from every tortilla. Arrange the tortilla triangles on the prepared baking sheets. Brush the pieces with the melted butter. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the tortillas. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until crispy. Remove the baked tortilla chips and transfer them to a clean baking sheet or plate to cool. Repeat with any remaining tortilla pieces if needed.
In a large bowl, gently toss together the pineapple chunks and chopped strawberries. Serve this fresh fruit mixture immediately with the cinnamon tortilla chips or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. The fruit will keep well for several days, up to one week.
Notes
Make sure to chill the salsa before serving for best flavor and texture
