We prefer corn tortillas for our taquitos, but if you like flour tortillas you can totally use them. They usually need a few extra minutes in the oven than corn tortillas do to get crispy! Best part? You can freeze these bad boys and they can be just as easy to reheat as the ones you get from the store. Simply toss them back in your air fryer or oven and cook until crispy and melty.
