Notes
Do not overstuff tortillas; warm large tortillas before folding for pliability. Fold tightly and cook seam-side down first to prevent falling apart.
Ensure skillet is hot enough for a golden crust, but not burning. Press gently with a spatula while cooking for even browning and melted cheese.
Store leftovers refrigerated for up to 3 days. Reheat in oven (350°F/175°C for 10-15 mins) or air fryer (350°F for 5-7 mins). Avoid microwave to prevent sogginess.
Can be frozen for up to 1 month. Wrap cooled crunchwraps individually in plastic wrap, then foil. Reheat from frozen in a 375°F (190°C) oven for 20-25 minutes.
Customize by substituting sausage with bacon, ham, or plant-based options. Make it vegetarian by omitting meat and adding sautéed veggies like bell peppers, onions, spinach, or mushrooms. Experiment with different cheeses (Monterey Jack, Mexican blend) or add hot sauce/red pepper flakes for spice. Replace hash browns with tater tots or refried beans.
Serve with a fresh fruit salad, extra salsa, guacamole, orange juice, or coffee.
