Equipment

Ingredients

1 burrito sized flour tortilla
Cooking spray

Instructions

Spray both sides of tortilla with cooking spray.
Fold a piece of foil double thickness the size of the tortilla.
Fold into the basket of your air fryer.
Place a larger ramekin (or something similar) into the middle of the shell.
Air fry for 5 minutes on 400 degrees.
Carefully remove ramekin (it's HOT!!) and foil. Place ramekin back into the center, air fry 2 minutes more.

Notes

**Note - My air fryer basket is round. So I was able to make my bowls the same size as the basket. If your air fryer basket isn't round, and I know that many of them aren't, the foil part of this process is a little different.

For shaping a bowl to make in a square air fryer, place the doubled over, heavy duty foil under the tortilla, form it into a circle that is a bit larger than the tortilla itself. Form the foil and the tortilla into the shape of a bowl, add the ramekin to the center, take that extra bit of foil and fold it over the edge of the tortilla slightly. It will help it keep its shape, and also aid in it getting too brown.

The recipe video you see here will show this technique, the photos show the technique for the round air fryer basket. Air fryers vary. Careful not to let it burn.
