Ingredients
Scale
Beef Filling
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Cheese and Wrap
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Garlic Butter Glaze
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Garnish
- Sliced pickles, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare baking sheet: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and either line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
- Cook the ground beef: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook for about 7–8 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
- Season the beef: Stir in Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper into the cooked beef. Mix well, then remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly to avoid melting the tortillas during assembly.
- Make garlic butter mixture: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with minced garlic until fully blended. Set aside for brushing onto the rollups later for extra flavor and crispness.
- Assemble the rollups: Lay out the four tortillas on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the cooled beef mixture across each tortilla. Sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly over the beef layers.
- Roll and prepare for baking: Starting from one side, roll each tortilla tightly, folding in the sides to securely enclose the filling. Place the rollups seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Generously brush each rollup with the garlic butter mixture.
- Bake until golden: Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes or until the rollups turn golden brown, and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and let the rollups cool slightly. Slice into pinwheels if desired and garnish with sliced pickles for an added classic cheeseburger touch. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- You can substitute the flour tortillas with low-carb or gluten-free versions for dietary preferences.
- For extra cheesiness, add a slice of your favorite cheese inside each roll before baking.
- Feel free to add diced onions or pickles inside the filling for more texture.
- The rollups can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving to save time.
- Leftovers can be reheated in the oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness.
