Ingredients
- 6 Zero Carb Street Taco Tortillas
- 6 ounces Cream Cheese (softened)
- 1/3 cup Natural Peanut Butter
- 1/3 cup Keto Chocolate Chips
- 2 tbsp Swerve Confectioner’s Sugar Substitute
- 1/2 tsp Banana Extract
Directions
- Mix the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, natural peanut butter, Swerve confectioner’s sugar substitute, and banana extract. Use a hand mixer or a whisk to blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the keto chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the filling.
- Prepare the Tortillas: Take one Zero Carb Street Taco Tortilla and spread a generous amount of the peanut butter filling along the center. Be careful not to overfill, as you’ll need to roll them up tightly.
- Roll It Up: Starting from one end, carefully roll the tortilla around the filling, tucking in the sides as you go to create a neat roll-up. Repeat this process for all tortillas.
- Freeze the Roll-Ups: Arrange the roll-ups on a baking sheet and place them in the freezer for about 30 minutes. This step helps them hold their shape during cooking.
- Air Fry to Perfection: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Once heated, place the frozen roll-ups in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded. Cook for about 8-10 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked, remove the roll-ups from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm for the best experience!
