Cinnamon Crisps
½ tsp sugar
¼ tsp cinnamon
1 tsp melted butter
Whole wheat flour tortilla or pitas
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine sugar and cinnamon. Brush tortilla or pita with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon mixture. Cut tortilla into strips and place on baking sheet. Bake for 5 – 10 minutes. Can also be rolled up for baking.
My kids like to eat it rolled up without baking it.
