Ingredients
- 3 large eggs ($0.45)
- ½ cup milk ($0.10)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar ($0.06)
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon ($0.02)
- 8 flour tortillas, 6 inch, or 4 flour tortillas, 10 inch ($2.22)
Instructions
- Heat skillet. Place a medium skillet over medium low heat and grease with melted butter or nonstick spray.
- Mix custard. Whisk the eggs in a shallow dish until fully beaten. Add the milk, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon and whisk until combined.
- Dip tortillas. Dip one tortilla into the egg mixture, flipping to coat both sides and letting excess drip off.
- Cook. Place the tortilla in the hot skillet and cook for 1 to 2 minutes per side, until golden. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining tortillas.
- Fill and roll. Add desired fillings, roll into wraps, and dust with powdered sugar if desired.
- Serve. Serve warm.
Notes
- Tortillas. Flour tortillas are recommended. Corn tortillas are untested but may work.
- Filling Ideas. Nutella with strawberries, peanut butter with bananas, vanilla pudding with mini chocolate chips, whipped cream with berries, or lemon curd with blueberries.
- Flavor Adjustments. Omit cinnamon or add vanilla extract to the custard to taste.
- Reheating. Microwave 1 to 2 wraps at a time for about 1 minute.
- Storage. Store cooked tortillas in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. Allow to cool fully before storing to prevent sogginess.
