I'd like to tell you about a fun little dessert I made up the other day, while also preparing my fish tacos with mango salsa. Since I had a lot of leftover El Salvadorian tortillas, I decided to create a sweet dessert tortilla in the most simple way.
Getting the idea from a really delicious dish I had in La Lucha Mexican restaurant, I aimed to recreate it at home, but a lighter version. While La Lucha's was loaded with delicious melty chocolate and dulce de leche sauce, I kept mine pretty simple yet still a treat. All you need are 4 simple ingredients and an oven. Even a toaster oven will do...try it out!
Dessert Tortilla
Ingredients (serves 1)
1 thick tortilla - I prefer El Salvadorian tortillas, as they're extra thick and more substantial
Butter, for thinly spreading on tortilla
Sprinkling of brown sugar
Ground cinnamon
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Brush tortilla lightly with butter and then place on a lined baking sheet. Top with brown sugar and a sprinkling of cinnamon.
Bake for about 15 minutes or until the edges of the tortilla get crunchy. Enjoy with a glass of white wine or an ice cold Mexican beer. You can of course dress this tortilla further with fresh fruit, peanut butter, speculoos, Nutella or what have you.
