Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Rollup and Topping
- 4 large flour tortillas
- ¼ cup butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- Optional: sliced pickles for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prepare for baking the rollups.
- Cook the Beef: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula, about 7–8 minutes.
- Season the Beef: Stir in Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and remove from heat. Allow the beef mixture to cool slightly to avoid excess moisture in the tortillas.
- Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine melted butter with minced garlic. Stir well and set aside for brushing over the rollups.
- Assemble the Rollups: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the beef mixture over each tortilla, then sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese on top.
- Roll and Bake: Roll each tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides to secure the filling. Place them seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush generously with the garlic butter mixture to add rich flavor and enhance browning. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the roll-ups are golden and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Allow rollups to cool slightly before slicing into pinwheels if desired. Garnish with sliced pickles and serve warm for the best flavor experience.
Notes
- To avoid soggy tortillas, ensure the beef mixture is not too wet before assembling.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the rollups into pinwheels for clean cuts.
- Customize by adding other burger toppings like cooked bacon, diced onions, or jalapeños inside the rollups.
- For a gluten-free option, substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free tortillas.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven for best results.
