Ingredients You’ll Need
What is a breakfast crunchwrap? If you’ve never been to Taco Bell in the AM, this is there breakfast version of the crunchwrap supreme. A soft tortilla is loaded with savory sausage or crumbled bacon, fluffy eggs, a crispy baked hash brown and so much cheese before being grilled to perfection.
- Bacon: Or sausage. You can cook and crumble either one of these breakfast meats to add inside your wrap.
- Eggs: Scrambled eggs are one of my favorite things to make. They are so super simple but you can add almost anything to boost the flavor.
- Hash browns: Specifically, a hash brown patty. These are so inexpensive and can be found in the freezer section of most grocers. We picked up a pack for around $1 at Trader Joe’s.
- Cheese: Here’s another place you can get creative. While cheddar cheese is traditional, we’ve loaded ours up with pepper jack as well.
- Tortillas: Reach for the giant burrito size so you can fold all of the goodness inside without it sneaking out.
- Jalapeno Cream Sauce: The recipe for this is below, but you can actually purchase this pre-made at some stores. I found a bottle on Amazon (affiliate) for around $7.
Jesseca’s Recipe Review
This taco bell breakfast crunch wrap is a total win in our house. It’s quick to throw together, super filling, and way better than the fast food version. The crispy hash brown in the middle? Game changer. I love making a batch on the weekend and freezing extras for those chaotic mornings when no one wants cereal.
Tip from Jesseca:
To get that perfect golden crust, press the wrap gently with a spatula while it cooks, just enough to seal the folds and crisp the edges without squishing the filling.
Variations and Substitutions
This breakfast crunchwrap is super customizable, which makes it perfect for picky eaters or using up what you’ve got in the fridge. Here are a few easy swaps and fun twists:
- Cheese – Use what you love. Cheddar, Monterey Jack, pepper jack, or even a slice of American cheese all melt beautifully.
- Meat – Don’t have sausage or bacon? Try diced ham, turkey sausage, or go meatless with sautéed veggies or meatless crumbles.
- Hash browns – Any crispy potato works! Swap in tater tots, shredded hash browns, or leftover roasted potatoes.
- Tortillas – Large burrito-size tortillas work best, but you can use slightly smaller ones—just don’t overfill.
- Sauce – No jalapeño sauce? Sub with hot sauce, salsa, chipotle mayo, or even a little ranch for a milder flavor.
Make it your own by adding extras like sautéed peppers, avocado, or a slice of tomato. The options are endless and every combo is delicious!
How to Make Taco Bell Breakfast Crunchwrap
Breakfast crunchwraps are everything you love about a fast food breakfast, made even better at home. Crispy, cheesy, and packed with flavor—it’s an easy, customizable morning win.
- Build your base – Lay a large tortilla flat, spread with jalapeño sauce if using, then layer with one crispy hash brown, scrambled eggs, cheese, and sausage or bacon.
- Wrap it up – Fold the tortilla edges toward the center, creating pleats to form a sealed circle.
- Toast it – Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Carefully place the crunchwrap seam-side down and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden. Flip and cook another minute.
- Repeat and serve – Make a second wrap with the remaining ingredients. Serve warm or freeze for later.
Whether you’re making one for now or prepping a freezer stash, this crunchwrap delivers the perfect handheld breakfast every time.
Tips For Success
- Warm your tortillas – A few seconds in the microwave makes them more pliable and easier to fold without tearing.
- Don’t overfill – It’s tempting, but too much filling makes it hard to seal and cook evenly. Keep it compact for a clean fold.
- Low and slow wins – Cook on medium-low heat to get that golden crust without burning the outside before the inside heats through.
- Customize with leftovers – Use last night’s roasted veggies, extra taco meat, or even a slice of deli ham to switch things up.
- Freeze before or after cooking – Both options work well. Just be sure to wrap tightly and label with the date.
Storage and Make-Ahead Instructions
- Make-Ahead: Assemble the crunchwraps fully, but hold off on cooking if you plan to store them. Wrap each one tightly in foil or plastic wrap and keep in the fridge for up to 2 days. When ready to eat, toast them in a skillet or air fryer until golden and heated through.
- Freezer-Friendly: These freeze like a dream. After cooking, let them cool completely, then wrap each one in foil or freezer paper. Store in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months. To reheat, unwrap and warm in a skillet over low heat, or microwave for 1 to 2 minutes followed by a quick crisp in a pan or air fryer.
- Leftovers: If you have leftovers after cooking, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a pan or air fryer to keep the outside crisp.
Recipe Tips and FAQs

My family loves this!
I’m so glad, Doris! This is one that we make often and is probably my teens favorite breakfast.
Tried these for the first time this morning. Tasted great.Curious though…if you freeze them,how do you reheat so that it is still crunchy?
Hi Tina, the best way that we have found to reheat these, and still have them be crispy, is tho wrap in a damp paper towel and microwave for 2-4 minutes. Once heated, I transfer to the oven and cook for about 15 minutes at 325 degrees. This gives you a nice crispy finish.
You could also microwave and then transfer to a skillet and heat until brown. If you opt for this version, I suggest not toasting the tortilla before freezing.
Bomb, I used my own fillings but your recipe was my inspiration. Thank you!
Thanks so much!
