Description

These Air Fryer Blueberry Chimichangas are crispy, golden tortilla wraps filled with a sweet and juicy blueberry filling. Air frying makes them lighter than traditional deep-fried chimichangas while keeping the delicious crunch. Serve them with whipped cream, ice cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar for a perfect dessert or snack!


Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Filling:

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

For the Chimichangas:

  • 4 small flour tortillas
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted

For Topping (Optional):

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar + 1 teaspoon cinnamon (for coating)
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)
  • Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (for serving)



Instructions

1. Prepare the Blueberry Filling:

  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
  2. Stir and cook for 3-5 minutes, until the blueberries burst and the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let cool.

2. Assemble the Chimichangas:

  1. In a small bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Spread about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture onto each tortilla.
  3. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of blueberry filling onto the lower half of the tortilla.
  4. Fold in the sides and roll tightly, like a burrito. Brush the seam with melted butter to help seal.

3. Air Fry the Chimichangas:

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Brush each chimichanga with melted butter and place them seam-side down in the air fryer basket.
  3. Air fry for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy.

4. Add Toppings & Serve:

  1. Roll warm chimichangas in cinnamon sugar or dust with powdered sugar.
  2. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream and enjoy!



Notes

  • Make it fruity: Swap blueberries for strawberries, apples, or mixed berries.
  • No air fryer? Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15 minutes, flipping halfway.
  • Extra crunch: Sprinkle crushed graham crackers inside for texture.
  • Storage: Best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in the fridge and reheat in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes.
