Tortilla Cream Cheese Cinnamon Roll-Ups
A quick dessert with tortillas and cream cheese: sweetened cream cheese rolled up in flour tortillas, pan-crisped until golden and coated in cinnamon sugar. Ready in about 15 minutes.
Ingredients
Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir the softened cream cheese and 1 teaspoon sugar together until smooth. Taste and add a little more sugar if you like it sweeter.
- Warm the tortillas in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds so they are soft. Divide the cream cheese mixture between the two tortillas and spread it in a thin, even layer almost to the edges. Scatter the berries over the top, if using.
- Roll each tortilla up snugly, finishing with the seam on the bottom.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the roll-ups seam side down and cook for 1 to 2 minutes per side, turning, until lightly golden all over. Watch closely so they don't overbrown.
- Meanwhile, mix the 1 tablespoon sugar and the cinnamon on a plate. Roll or sprinkle the warm roll-ups in the cinnamon sugar right away, using as much as you like.
- Slice each roll-up in half (or into bite-size pieces) and serve warm.
Notes
Air fryer: Brush the roll-ups lightly with oil or melted butter and air fry seam side down at 375°F for 5 to 6 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and crisp.
Oven: Bake seam side down on a parchment-lined sheet at 400°F for 10 to 12 minutes until golden. Best for a big batch.
Cheesecake-style filling: Beat ¼ teaspoon vanilla and a squeeze of lemon juice into the cream cheese and use powdered sugar in place of granulated.
Storage: Best eaten fresh. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days and re-crisp in the air fryer or oven at 350°F.
