How to Make Air Fryer Cheeseburger Wraps

Step 1: Cook the beef

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula. Drain any excess grease.

Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and stir in ketchup and mustard if using. Remove from heat.

Step 2: Assemble the wraps

Lay out your tortillas. In the center of each, place a slice of cheese, then top with a generous scoop of the beef mixture.

Add your favorite toppings (like diced pickles, onions, or a drizzle of burger sauce), then fold the tortilla like a burrito: sides in first, then roll tightly from the bottom up.

Step 3: Air fry

Spray the outside of each wrap lightly with olive oil spray.

Place seam-side down in your air fryer basket. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 6–8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

Step 4: Serve

Slice in half and serve with extra dipping sauce, fries, or a simple side salad!

What to Serve with Cheeseburger Wraps

Keep it classic and serve with:

• Sweet potato fries or curly fries
• Air fryer onion rings
• Dill pickle spears
• Coleslaw or pasta salad
• Fruit salad for a fresh contrast
• A cold drink or milkshake if you’re going all-in!

Tips for the Best Air Fryer Wraps

• Don’t overstuff—it makes rolling harder and can lead to leaks
• Place seam-side down first in the air fryer to help seal
• A light spray of oil makes them extra crispy
• Use cheese slices or shredded cheese—just make sure it’s melty!
• Want extra golden wraps? Brush with melted butter before air frying

Storage Instructions

• Fridge: Store leftovers wrapped in foil or airtight container for up to 3 days
• Freezer: Wrap tightly in foil or plastic, then freeze in a bag for up to 2 months
• Reheat: Pop into the air fryer at 350°F for 5–6 minutes or microwave for 1–2 minutes (air fryer = best texture)
