The burrito wraps are light beige with some brown spots, soft and lightly toasted. The stack sits on a white marbled surface, with an extra folded burrito and some flat cooked tortillas blurred in the background. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 2 cups breakfast potatoes or cooked hashbrowns
  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 10 soft flour tortillas (such as Mission “Super Soft”)
  • 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • Green salsa (optional)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare the breakfast potatoes or crispy hashbrowns according to your preference and set them aside.
  2. Step 2: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a half-sheet pan and crack the eggs onto it. Use a fork to gently mix in the milk, then season with salt and black pepper. Bake for 10–12 minutes until slightly firm. Press gently with a fork to check doneness, then cut the baked eggs into 20 squares.
  3. Step 3: In the center of each tortilla, layer 2 egg squares, green salsa (if using), breakfast potatoes, and 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese. Adding the cheese last helps seal the tortilla when folded.
  4. Step 4: Fold the edges of the tortilla over the filling to form a crunchwrap. Place each crunchwrap seam side down on a greased baking sheet, then place another baking sheet on top to keep them closed.
  5. Step 5: Bake the crunchwraps at 350°F for 8 minutes. Remove the top baking sheet and bake for an additional 4–6 minutes, until the tortillas are toasty brown.
  6. Step 6: Serve warm with extra green salsa, sriracha, or your favorite hot sauce. To store, let the crunchwraps cool completely, then wrap individually in aluminum foil and freeze for later. Reheat in the microwave for 1–2 minutes or air fry at 375°F for 15 minutes.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra flavor, try adding cooked breakfast sausage or bacon into the filling.
  • Use pepper jack cheese for a spicy twist.
  • If you don’t have green salsa, pico de gallo or a mild tomato salsa works well too.
  • To make the fold easier, warm the tortillas slightly before assembling.

Storage

Store leftover crunchwraps in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze them wrapped individually in foil for up to 1 month. Reheat frozen crunchwraps in the microwave for 1–2 minutes or air fry at 375°F for 15 minutes until heated through and crispy.

How to Serve

A stack of four folded breakfast wraps is shown on a white marbled surface, each wrap cut in half to reveal three layers inside. The outer layer is a light beige tortilla with some browned toasted spots. Inside, the middle layer is a bright yellow folded egg, smooth in texture, sitting directly on the bottom tortilla. Above the egg layer, there is a chunky layer of browned, crispy potatoes with a mix of light brown and golden colors. Melting yellow cheese oozes between the potato and egg layers, adding a glossy texture and some drips. In the background, more folded wraps and a cooling rack can be seen, all set on the white marbled surface. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use frozen hashbrowns for this recipe?

Yes, frozen hashbrowns work well. Just be sure to cook them until they are crispy before assembling to avoid soggy crunchwraps.

Can I make these ahead of time?

Absolutely! You can prepare and assemble the crunchwraps, then freeze them individually. Reheat directly from frozen using a microwave or air fryer for a quick breakfast option.

Ingredients

Scale

Egg Mixture

  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Crunchwrap Components

  • 2 cups breakfast potatoes or cooked hashbrowns
  • 10 soft flour tortillas (such as Mission “Super Soft”)
  • 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese (approximately 2 tablespoons per crunchwrap)
  • Green salsa (optional, for layering and serving)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Breakfast Potatoes: Cook 2 cups of breakfast potatoes or hashbrowns to a crispy texture according to your preferred method, then set aside to cool slightly.
  2. Bake Eggs: Preheat the oven to 350°F. On a greased half-sheet baking pan, crack 12 large eggs. Use a fork to gently whisk in 1 tablespoon of milk, then season with salt and black pepper. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the eggs are just set. Press gently with a fork to check firmness. Remove from oven and cut the baked eggs into 20 squares.
  3. Assemble Crunchwraps: Lay out a soft flour tortilla. In the center, layer 2 egg squares, a spoonful of green salsa if using, a serving of breakfast potatoes, and top with about 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese. The cheese on top helps seal the wrap during baking.
  4. Fold Crunchwrap: Fold the edges of the tortilla inward to enclose the filling, creating a circular, wrapped pocket. Place the crunchwrap seam side down on a greased baking sheet.
  5. Seal Crunchwraps: Place a second baking sheet on top of the assembled crunchwraps to keep them closed while baking.
  6. Bake Crunchwraps: Bake at 350°F for 8 minutes, then remove the top baking sheet and continue baking for an additional 4-6 minutes until the wraps are toasted golden brown and crisp.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the breakfast crunchwraps warm, garnished with extra green salsa, sriracha, or your favorite hot sauce. For make-ahead meals, let the crunchwraps cool completely, wrap individually in aluminum foil, and freeze. To reheat, microwave them unwrapped for 1-2 minutes or air fry at 375°F for about 15 minutes while wrapped in foil.
