One thing I really love is a breakfast burrito. There is just something about all the delicious flavors of breakfast all rolled up in a warm tortilla. So, of course, I had to pop some in the air fryer & make these Air Fryer Breakfast Burritos that are the absolute best way to start the day.
The more I use my air fryer, the more I find that I can make in there. I am always looking for new recipes I can try to make faster & easier with the help of my air fryer. These breakfast burritos were a hit with the whole family.
Breakfast Burritos in the Air Fryer

I really love making these when we have leftovers from a big family breakfast the day before. I find that we often make double batches of everything just so that we have leftovers so these breakfast burritos can happen.
They are perfect for my kids who are often running out the door to lecture or labs or work. They barely have time for meals & being able to toss all these ingredients in a tortilla & pop it in the air fryer for a few minutes is awesome. A quick & easy, handheld meal that is also nutritious can’t be beaten.
Here are some commonly asked questions
Can I change the ingredients added to these burritos?
Yes, sometimes I like to add a few tater tots or hashbrowns, a sausage link or even a fried egg that ooses out all that yolk when you bite in. But, of course, that means I have to make that one fresh & not use leftovers. So that particular delicious addition doesn’t happen as often.
What air fryer do you use?
We actually have 2 air fryers. I have a smaller one from Phillips that we started with. But the more I used the air fryer I realized I really wanted a digital screen. It wasn’t any more expensive, in fact- our XL air fryer from GoWISE was less expensive than the Phillips and I love its ease & extra funtions. Plus it comes with a lot of the extra accessories I like to use when cooking with my fryer.
What oil sprayer do you use?
First, let me say that I highly recommend that you do not use cooking spray. It will leave a residue on your air fryer basket & cause it to smoke when you use it. I really like this spray bottle – because it gives a nice mist & sprays consistently each time using just vegetable or canola oil. I couldn’t air fry easily without it.

Can these be frozen before air frying them?
Gina Kleinworth says
To make make-ahead freezer breakfast burritos, allow the burritos to cool slightly, then wrap each in freezer paper or parchment paper followed by plastic wrap. Then store in a large freezer bag in the freezer.
To reheat frozen breakfast burritos in the air fryer, unwrap and use the reheat setting for about 15 minutes at 350.
