Step 1

If using whole dried chiles, remove the stems and seeds and discard. If using ground chili powder, skip to step 4.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add dried chilies and toast for 1-2 minutes per side, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn, reducing the heat if needed. Remove peppers from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3

IF USING WHOLE CHILES: Once cool, transfer toasted chiles to a small blender (or use a spice grinder and work in batches). Blend into a powder. Then add cumin, garlic powder, oregano, smoked paprika, coriander, cayenne, cinnamon, and cocoa powder (optional) and pulse to combine.

Step 4

IF USING GROUND CHILES: Add chile powder to a small bowl or jar along with cumin, garlic powder, oregano, smoked paprika, coriander, cayenne, cinnamon, and cocoa powder (optional) and stir or shake to combine.

Step 5

Perfect for making chili, BBQ sweet potato croutons, chili fries, vegan taco meat, chickpea kale salad, fish tacos, pumpkin black bean soup, and burrito bowls.

Step 6

Leftovers will keep in a sealed container for 6 months at room temperature. Or, refrigerate or freeze to keep fresh even longer (up to 1 year).
