Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 6 fresh eggs
- 1/2 lb, crumbled breakfast sausage
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup frozen hash browns
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup fresh salsa
Instructions
- Step 1: In a non-stick skillet, cook 1/2 lb crumbled breakfast sausage over medium heat until fully browned and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes. Remove sausage and set aside.
- Step 2: In the same skillet, add 1 cup frozen hash browns and cook over medium heat for 5-6 minutes until golden brown and crispy on the edges. Remove and keep warm.
- Step 3: In a bowl, whisk together 6 fresh eggs, 2 tbsp milk, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper until well combined.
- Step 4: Melt 1 tbsp butter in a clean skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the egg mixture and gently scramble for 3-4 minutes until just set but still moist. Remove from heat.
- Step 5: Warm 4 large flour tortillas on a dry skillet for 20 seconds each side until pliable.
- Step 6: To assemble each crunchwrap, lay one tortilla flat. Place 1/4 cup scrambled eggs in the center, top with 2 tbsp cooked sausage, 1/4 cup crispy hash browns, and 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese. Add 1 tbsp sour cream and 1 tbsp fresh salsa.
- Step 7: Fold the edges of the tortilla toward the center, overlapping to seal the filling inside. Gently press to flatten.
- Step 8: Heat 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook each wrapped tortilla seam side down for 2-3 minutes until golden brown, then flip and cook the other side for another 2 minutes until crisp and cheese is melted. Serve immediately.
