Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. 2 Brush oil on both sides of tortillas.
  3. 3 Invert ramekin on a work surface. Center tortilla over bottom of the ramekin; gently shape tortilla down around sides.
  4. 4 Place a double layer of aluminum foil over tortilla and press to form a bowl around the ramekin.
  5. 5 Place right-side-up on a baking sheet. Leave about 1/2-inch of tortilla exposed above foil, so it gets browned and crispy when baked. Repeat this step with second tortilla.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Use tongs to remove the ramekins from shells. Continue baking shells until lightly browned, about 5 more minutes.
  7. 7 Carefully remove foil from around shells. Flatten foil sheets and invert shells on them. Bring foil up just around bottom of shells to protect top edge.
  8. 8 Bake shells until browned and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Invert shells and continue baking until crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Watch them carefully, so they don't burn.
  9. 9 Transfer basket burritos to a rack to cool completely.
  10. 10 Enjoy!
