Main Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground Beef (lean or regular)
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar or American Cheese
- 4 Flour Tortillas (soft and sturdy)
- 1/2 cup finely diced Onions
- 1/4 cup sliced Pickles
- Ketchup, to taste
- Mustard, to taste
- Olive Oil or Cooking Spray
- Salt and Pepper, to taste
Optional Ingredients
- Lettuce, as desired
- Tomatoes, sliced, as desired
- Diced Jalapeños or Hot Sauce, for spice
- Alternative Cheeses (pepper jack, mozzarella, Swiss)
- Avocado slices or Guacamole
- Prepare the Beef Mixture: Season the ground beef with salt and pepper. Cook it in a skillet over medium heat until fully browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Stir in finely diced onions and cook until they soften slightly.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat and add a generous spoonful of the beef mixture in the center. Top with shredded cheese, pickles, a drizzle of ketchup and mustard, and any optional veggies like lettuce or tomato. Fold the sides in and roll tightly to form a neat bundle.
- Prepare for Air Frying: Lightly brush or spray the outside of each wrap with olive oil or cooking spray to ensure a golden, crispy finish.
- Air Fry to Perfection: Place the wraps in a single layer in the air fryer basket without touching. Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through for even crisping. The cheese should be melted and the tortilla golden brown.
- Serve and Enjoy: Let the wraps cool for 1 to 2 minutes before slicing in half to reveal the melty, juicy filling. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Do not overfill the wraps to avoid soggy or bursting wraps during cooking.
- Cook at medium heat (around 375°F) for crispy, evenly cooked wraps without burning.
- Flip halfway through air frying to ensure all sides are evenly browned.
- Allow wraps to rest briefly before cutting to let the cheese set for cleaner slices.
- Experiment with different toppings and sauces to suit your taste preferences.
