Description

Air Fryer Breakfast Roll-Ups are a quick, delicious, and customizable breakfast option that combines fluffy scrambled eggs, savory fillings, and melted cheese wrapped in crispy tortillas. Ready in under 15 minutes, these roll-ups deliver a perfect balance of crispy texture and flavorful filling, ideal for busy mornings or relaxed weekend brunches.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 flour tortillas (8-inch size)
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella recommended)
  • 4 cooked bacon strips or cooked sausage, chopped
  • 1/2 cup diced vegetables (optional: peppers, onions, spinach)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Additional Ingredients

  • Cooking spray or oil, for brushing

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: Whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper, then scramble them softly in a nonstick pan. Meanwhile, ensure your meat and vegetables are fully cooked and chopped into small pieces suitable for filling.
  2. Assemble the Roll-Ups: Lay out one tortilla at a time. Spread a thin layer of scrambled eggs evenly over the tortilla, then add the cooked meat, diced vegetables (if using), and shredded cheese. Avoid overfilling to prevent tearing. Roll each tortilla tightly but gently.
  3. Prepare for Air Frying: Lightly brush or spray the outside of each roll-up with cooking spray or a small amount of oil. This helps achieve a golden, crispy crust and prevents sticking.
  4. Air Fry to Perfection: Place the roll-ups in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between them for air circulation. Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping the roll-ups halfway through to promote even crisping on all sides.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Remove the roll-ups carefully once golden and crispy. Let them cool for a minute before slicing or serving whole. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use fresh eggs and quality fillings for optimal taste and texture.
  • Do not overfill the tortillas to avoid tearing during rolling and cooking.
  • Pre-cook all meats and vegetables thoroughly before assembling.
  • Flip the roll-ups halfway through the air frying process for even browning.
  • Experiment with different cheeses like pepper jack or smoked gouda for varied flavors.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Freeze individually wrapped roll-ups for up to 2 months; thaw overnight before reheating.
  • Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 3 to 5 minutes to maintain crispiness.
