Ingredients
Scale
Wraps
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 8 slices deli ham
- 4 slices cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or your choice)
Condiments
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
Finishing
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: lettuce, tomato slices, or pickles for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 370°F (188°C) for about 3-5 minutes to ensure it is ready for cooking the wraps to a crispy perfection.
- Prepare the tortillas: On each flour tortilla, spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard followed by mayonnaise, evenly covering the surface to add tangy and creamy flavors.
- Add ham: Place two slices of deli ham in the center of each tortilla for a savory base layer.
- Add cheese and seasoning: Add one slice of cheese over the ham. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired to enhance the taste.
- Roll the wraps: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom to the top like a burrito, ensuring the fillings are securely enclosed to prevent spilling during cooking.
- Butter the wraps: Brush each rolled wrap lightly with melted butter; this helps the wraps crisp up and turn golden brown in the air fryer.
- Arrange in air fryer: Place the wraps into the air fryer basket without overcrowding. You may need to cook in batches depending on your air fryer size.
- Air fry: Cook the wraps for 7-10 minutes, turning halfway through, until the wraps are golden and the cheese has melted beautifully.
- Cool and slice: Carefully remove the hot wraps from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before slicing in half if desired for easy serving.
- Serve: Serve immediately, optionally garnished with fresh lettuce, tomato slices, or pickles for added crunch and flavor.
Notes
- Ensure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket for even cooking and proper browning.
- You can customize cheese types like mozzarella or provolone to vary the flavor.
- Adding fresh veggies on the side provides a refreshing contrast to the warm wraps.
- Butter helps achieve a golden crisp outside; skipping this step might result in less crispy wraps.
- Wraps are best served hot for melty cheese and optimal taste.
