Baked Crunchy Flamin' Hot

What is it?

Baked crunchy corn puffs get the Flamin' Hot treatment here, with the usual cayenne-based seasoning dusted over a baked base instead of a fried one. That shift brings the fat down by 50 percent compared with regular Crunchy, and it changes the bite too. The texture lands lighter and a little less dense, with a dry, crisp snap that’s closer to an airy corn snack than a classic fried puff. Inside Cheetos’ lineup, this sits between standard Crunchy and the softer Puffs. It’s usually sold in bag sizes for snacking and has the same red-orange seasoning you’d expect from the Flamin' Hot family.
