How to Make Air Fryer Cheeseburger Wraps
Step 1: Cook the Ground Beef
In a large skillet over medium heat, add:
- Ground beef
- Salt
- Pepper
- Garlic powder
Cook until browned and no longer pink. Drain any excess fat and set aside.
Step 2: Warm the Tortillas
Stack tortillas on a microwave-safe plate, cover with a damp paper towel, and microwave for 20–25 seconds to soften.
Step 3: Assemble the Wraps
Lay out one tortilla and spread with:
- A thin layer of mayo and ketchup
- 4 pickle slices
- 1 slice of American cheese
- About ½ cup of the cooked beef
Wrap it up like a burrito, folding in the sides and rolling tightly. Repeat for the remaining tortillas.
Step 4: Air Fry to Crisp
Brush the tops of the wraps with melted butter.
Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (193°C).
Place the wraps in the basket seam-side down (work in batches if needed).
Air fry for 5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 5: Serve & Enjoy
Brush with extra melted butter if desired.
Let cool slightly, then slice in half and serve with your favorite dipping sauce!
Variations & Add-Ons
- Add cooked bacon – For an extra savory crunch
- Top with shredded lettuce and tomato after cooking – For freshness
- Use different cheese – Try cheddar, pepper jack, or Swiss
- Make it spicy – Add jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce inside
- Low-carb version – Use low-carb wraps or lettuce leaves
Tips for Success
- Preheat your air fryer – Ensures even cooking and crisping
- Warm tortillas first – Prevents cracking when rolling
- Don’t overfill the wraps – Keep the edges clean for a tight seal
- Place seam-side down in the air fryer – So the wraps stay intact
- Use parchment paper if needed – To prevent sticking in the air fryer basket
