Flour tortillas – you need burrito-size flour tortillas
Hashbrowns – make them fresh or buy in the store
Eggs – you need big eggs
Mushrooms – cut into slices or quarter them

Olive oil – to cook in

Note that the full ingredients list, including measurements, can be found in the recipe card below.

How To Make A Breakfast Crunchwrap

Prepare Mushrooms

To make this recipe start with the mushrooms. Slice the mushrooms and add oil or butter to a skillet. Add all the sliced mushrooms into the skillet and move them around until golden brown.
This will only take a couple of minutes. Take it out of the pan and put it in a small bowl.

Prepare Sausage And Eggs

Take the skin of the sausages and put them in a nonstick skillet. Move the sausage meat around and turns from pink to brown.
When cooked drain the sausage meat off any excess oil. Turn the heat down.
Whisk the eggs in a bowl before adding them to the hot pan with the sausages. Stir the eggs and sausage meat into scrambled eggs until set. Turn down the heat.

Prepare Hashbrowns

In the meantime, heat a skillet and add some oil to warm the hash browns. I used these homemade hash browns that you can find on our other food website Fast Food Bistro.
These are easy to make from scratch or buy of course you can use store-bought if you have them on hand. Add the hash browns into the pan and press them lightly with a spatula. Bake until crispy and golden brown.
Then flip the hashbrowns until golden this will take about 5 minutes. Take out of the pan and put on a paper towel to drain. Set aside.

Tortilla Wedges Or Small Tortillas

Take 1 of the big burritos and put it on a cutting board. Cut the flour tortilla circle into 4 equal pie pieces and put them aside.
If you have small fajita tortillas you can use these as well. No cutting is required if you use these.

Layer Your Crunchwrap

Now it is time to layer your crunchwrap. Start with ¼ of the mushrooms and add ¼th of the sausage egg. Then add 2 hash browns on top of the egg mixture.
A decent handful of cheese. Top with a tortilla piece or small tortilla and fold into a crunch wrap (see below).
Repeat for the remaining tortillas. Put oil into a hot skillet and put the crunch wrap fold side down into the skillet. Bake for about 2 minutes. Check to see is crunchy and golden brown. Turn and bake for another 2 minutes.
Ready to serve.

How To Fold A Crunchwrap?

It may look complicated to fold a crunchwrap, but it is straightforward. Take a look at the steps below you need to take. Layer the ingredients in the middle of a big tortilla. Add a tortilla wedge or small fajita tortilla on top of the ingredients.

Take one edge of the big tortilla and fold this edge up to the center of the fillings.

Then take the next edge and fold to it the center of the filling. Keep repeating this folding it as tight as possible, as you work your way around the tortilla.

Turn the wrap so you can put it down into a hot skillet so it can bake golden brown.

Sweet red or green peppers
Sun-dried tomatoes

How To Store Crunchwraps

These breakfast crunch wraps are great to make ahead and store when you need them. You can store them in several ways:

Refrigerator – these wraps can be stored in the fridge. You have three options:
- Prepare all the ingredients, store them separately and when you are ready, layer the wrap and bake them. You can prepare all the ingredients and combine the crunch wrap but do not yet bake them
- Store them in a Ziploc bag or a food container and bake them when you want to serve
- Or you can prepare the whole crunchwrap and bake them. Let them cool completely, store in the fridge, and reheat when you want to serve
Freeze – if you want to keep these wraps longer you can store them in the freezer either baked or unbaked in a Ziploc bag or airtight food container

How To Reheat Breakfast Crunchwraps

To reheat your crunchwraps you again have various options. If frozen let them thaw first:

Cast-iron skillet – preheat a cast-iron to medium. Add your breakfast wrap and let it warm slowly. This can take up to 10 to 15 minutes
Oven – if you want to heat the wraps in the oven preheat your oven to 350℉. Wrap the crunchwraps individually in aluminum foil to prevent the outer tortilla from turning brown too fast and getting too crispy. Let them warm through for at least 10 minutes or until warm
