    What you need for air frying burritos:

    What are the best frozen burritos to air fry?

    I am partial to a good El Monterey frozen breakfast burrito but my husband loves Amyโ€™s bean and cheese burritos, both can be found at Walmart.

    This works for all types of frozen burrtios!

    How long do you cook frozen burritos in the air fryer?

    Cook for 15 minutes, flipping every 5 minutes.

    How long do you air fry El Monterey frozen burritos?

    El Monterey burritos are cooked the same as other frozen burritos- 15 minutes, flipping every 5 minutes.

    Frozen Burritos in the Air fryer are really simple and I love that air frying doesnโ€™t heat up the whole house while making a tasty burrito.

    Notes

    Tips and Tricks
    • If you have an air fryer like the instant vortex, you will want to position the air fryer tray at the lowest position, or if you are making more than one tray, switch tray positions half way through air frying so the top tray doesnโ€™t get overcooked.
    • Nutritional Info based off of one El Monterey Egg, Sausage, Cheese & Potato Burrito and will change if you heat and eat a different burrito
