Ingredients

  • 200 g Cottage Cheese (full‑fat, room temperature)
  • 2 large Eggs (room temperature)
  • 150 g Ground Beef (80% lean, preferably grass‑fed)
  • 5 slices Bacon (thin‑cut, uncured if possible)
  • 1 tbsp Butter (unsalted)
  • 30 ml Heavy Cream (cold)
  • 50 g Shredded Cheddar Cheese (sharp cheddar, shredded)
  • pinch pinch Salt (to taste)
  • 1 tbsp Bacon Grease (reserved from cooked bacon)
  • 1 piece Parchment Paper (cut to fit basket)

Instructions

  1. Cook Bacon in Air Fryer

    Line the air fryer basket with the bacon slices in a single layer, no overlapping. Set the air fryer to the bacon preset and adjust the time to 9 minutes.

    Time: PT9M

  2. Blend Cottage Cheese and Eggs

    In a blender, combine 200 g cottage cheese and the two eggs. Blend for 20‑30 seconds until smooth and creamy.

    Time: PT1M

  3. Prepare Basket Liner and Grease

    Tear a piece of parchment paper, crumple it slightly, and place it in the bottom of the basket. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat the parchment (and basket) with the reserved bacon grease.

    Time: PT2M

  4. Bake the Cottage Cheese Wrap

    Pour the blended cottage cheese‑egg mixture into the basket, spreading it into a roughly square shape with a spatula. Set the air fryer to 175 °C and bake for 20 minutes.

    Time: PT20M

    Temperature: 175°C

  5. Sauté Ground Beef

    While the wrap bakes, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the reserved bacon grease (or butter) and the 150 g ground beef. Season with a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and slightly crisp, about 8 minutes.

    Time: PT8M

  6. Prepare Cheddar Cheese Sauce

    In a small pot, melt 1 tbsp butter over low heat. Add 30 ml heavy cream and stir gently. When the mixture is warm, stir in 50 g shredded cheddar until melted and glossy, about 3 minutes.

    Time: PT4M

  7. Assemble and Fold

    Remove the baked wrap from the air fryer and let it cool for 2 minutes to firm up. Spread the cheese sauce evenly over the surface, top with the cooked ground beef, and finish with the crispy bacon slices. Fold the edges to form a wrap and slice in half.

    Time: PT3M
