Vegan Nacho Cheese Doritos Recipe
Traditional nacho cheese Doritos are not vegan, so I’m so excited that I get to enjoy the cheesy flavor without dairy, They are kid-friendly, great for back to school lunch, appetizers at a party.
They are fun to make with children, you can also make some plain ones brush oil then baked with a sprinkle of salt.
I used uncooked organic corn tortillas which turned out very crunchy, but the next time I plan to use other gluten-free vegan tortilla brands on the market.
My baked Doritos are made with simple ingredients found in the average kitchen, they are made without the highly processed ingredients and loaded calories found in the ones at the store, Read more.

These were awesome, Michelle, thank you! I was a nacho cheese dorito junkie as a teen, and I’m so happy to have this healthy recipe! I’ll use the spice combo for a lot of things! I air fried them. It was quick and easy. And they were nice and crispy. 😘

Sooo good! My chips weren’t all the way crispy. Do you think I should’ve left them in the oven a bit longer? Still good though. Thank you!

Jacqueline, I’m happy you enjoyed the flavor, yes definitely leave them longer, you could even turn off the oven and allow the trapped heat to crisp them up but you would have to keep on eye on them so they don’t burn.
