Instructions
-
Prepare the Fruit Mix: Start by placing the sliced strawberries, bananas, peaches, and chopped raspberries into a small mixing bowl. Drizzle the honey over the fruits and gently stir until all the fruits are well-coated with the honey. This mixture will add natural sweetness and a fruity tang to the wrap.
-
-
Warm the Tortillas: In a skillet or on a griddle, warm up the whole wheat flour tortillas for 1-2 minutes on each side, just enough to make them pliable and slightly golden. This will help the wraps hold their shape once rolled.
-
Spread the Cream Cheese: Lay the warmed tortillas flat on a serving platter. Use a butter knife or spoon to spread the softened Britannia cream cheese evenly over the center of each tortilla. Be sure to leave about an inch from the edges to make it easier to fold the wrap.
-
Assemble the Wraps: Take the prepared fruit mixture and place it down the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle the granola (or mixed nuts if you prefer) evenly over the fruit. The granola will add a satisfying crunch and additional texture to the wrap.
-
Roll the Wraps: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll it tightly to form a wrap, similar to a burrito. The result should be a neat, compact wrap filled with the vibrant fruits and granola.
-
Serve: Slice each wrap in half for easy serving. Enjoy your Sweet Mixed Fruits and Granola Breakfast Wraps with a refreshing Spiced Pumpkin Smoothie for a complete, nutritious breakfast thatโs both quick and delicious.
Tips for the Perfect Breakfast Wrap:
- Fruit Variations: Feel free to use your favorite fruits for this recipe. Try adding blueberries, kiwi, or mango for different flavors and textures.
- Nutritional Boost: For a more substantial wrap, add a spoonful of Greek yogurt or nut butter alongside the cream cheese for an extra dose of protein.
- Make Ahead: You can prepare the fruit mixture ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to a day. This will save you time on busy mornings.
- Gluten-Free Option: Substitute the whole wheat tortilla with a gluten-free option if needed, and the wrap will still taste just as great!
