Air Fryer Beef Burritos
Ready in about 29 minutes.
Updated 7 September 2026
These stuffed beef burritos crisp up golden and crunchy in the air fryer while staying warm and cheesy inside. Rolling them tightly and toasting the seam side down gives that satisfying crackle without deep frying.

- 500 g minced beef
- 1 tbsp taco seasoning
- 400 g tin refried beans
- 4 large flour tortillas

Tips for the best results
- Do not overfill or the burritos will burst; a thin, even layer rolls up best.
- Placing them seam-side down first seals the edge so they stay wrapped.
