Big Mac Wraps in the Air Fryer
Introduction
If you love the flavors of a classic Big Mac but want a lighter, homemade version, these Big Mac Wraps are a perfect choice! They capture the iconic taste—juicy beef, melty cheese, crisp lettuce, tangy pickles, and a delicious homemade Big Mac sauce—all wrapped in a warm tortilla.
The air fryer makes these wraps crispy on the outside while keeping the filling juicy and flavorful. Plus, it’s a quicker and healthier alternative to pan-frying!
Ingredients (Serves 4)
For the Big Mac Filling
1 lb ground beef (80/20 for juiciness)
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (adds umami)
For the Big Mac Sauce
½ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
½ teaspoon white vinegar
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
For the Wraps
4 large flour tortillas
4 slices cheddar or American cheese
½ cup shredded lettuce
¼ cup diced onions
¼ cup sliced pickles
1 teaspoon sesame seeds (for that Big Mac bun feel)
Cooking spray or a light brush of oil
Instructions
Prepare the Big Mac Sauce
In a bowl, mix mayo, ketchup, pickle relish, mustard, vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Stir until smooth and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Cook the Beef
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce until fully browned (about 6-7 minutes).
Drain excess grease and let it cool slightly.
Assemble the Wraps
Lay out the flour tortillas and spread 1-2 tablespoons of Big Mac sauce on each.
Add a slice of cheese to each tortilla.
Divide the cooked beef evenly among the tortillas.
Top with shredded lettuce, diced onions, and pickle slices.
Fold the sides in, then roll tightly like a burrito.
Air Fry the Wraps
Lightly spray the wraps with cooking spray or brush with oil for crispiness.
Sprinkle a few sesame seeds on top for the authentic Big Mac bun look!
Place wraps seam side down in the air fryer basket. Don’t overcrowd; cook in batches if needed.
Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
Serve & Enjoy!
Slice in half and serve with extra Big Mac sauce for dipping.
Enjoy with a side of crispy air-fried fries or a fresh salad!
Tips for the Best Big Mac Wraps
Use 80/20 ground beef for the juiciest filling.
Don’t overfill the wraps to prevent them from unrolling.
Let the cooked beef cool slightly before assembling to avoid soggy tortillas.
Air fryer times may vary, so check for crispiness after 6 minutes and adjust as needed.
For extra cheesiness, add a second slice of cheese before rolling!
