This s’mores crunchwrap turns a nostalgic campfire treat into a gooey and crispy dessert you can make any night. Whether you use an air fryer or skillet, you get all the melty marshmallow and chocolate goodness in a less-messy, hand-held wrap the whole family loves.
I whipped these up for a rainy movie night when camping plans got canceled, and now we crave them even more than the original by the fire.
Ingredients
- Large flour tortillas: These make the perfect crispy pocket and are sturdy enough for fillings Look for soft and flexible ones in the bakery section
- Graham crackers: Essential for that classic s’mores flavor Use fresh crackers so they stay crunchy inside the wrap
- Mini marshmallows: Just the right size for melting quickly and evenly Fresh marshmallows give the best gooey texture
- Milk chocolate bar: Melty chocolate is non-negotiable I use classic Hershey’s but you can experiment with dark or flavored chocolates
- Butter: Adds rich flavor and helps brown the tortilla Choose good quality salted butter for a touch of savory balance
- Cinnamon sugar: Optional But it takes the crunchwrap over the top with a little warm sweetness Freshly mixed cinnamon sugar works best for flavor
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Assemble the Crunchwrap:
- Lay one tortilla on a flat surface Place half a cup of mini marshmallows in the center arranging in an even layer. Break one graham cracker in half and lay over the marshmallows. Add about one ounce of chocolate over the graham—this is usually four to six squares but you can eyeball it.
- Fold the Wrap:
- Start folding one edge of the tortilla toward the center and hold in place. Continue around the tortilla, making pleats with each fold so the filling is wrapped up securely. Do not pull it too tight or you risk tearing the tortilla or poking through the graham cracker.
- For Air Fryer:
- Place filled crunchwrap seam side down in your air fryer basket. Use a pastry brush to add butter over the top. Set air fryer to four hundred degrees Fahrenheit. Cook for five to seven minutes until lightly browned. Flip crunchwrap so the seam side faces up, brush on more butter, and cook an extra two to three minutes until deep golden.
- For Stovetop:
- Heat a skillet over medium high and add a bit of butter Once the butter melts place the crunchwrap seam side down and cook three to four minutes per side until evenly golden and crisp. Flip again so seam side is down before serving.
- Finish and Serve:
- Brush with any leftover melted butter and sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the top if desired For those who love extra gooey centers slice in half to check You can always sneak a few more marshmallows inside while hot.

My favorite part is that hit of cinnamon sugar on top which reminds me of churros It started as a last minute add in and my family now asks for it every time We have had so much fun assembling these together especially on nights we need a campfire fix without the camping
Storage Tips
Leftover crunchwraps are best stored wrapped in foil or an airtight container at room temperature up to one day. Reheat in an air fryer or oven for a few minutes to restore crispiness. Avoid microwaving because you will lose that perfect tortilla crunch.
Ingredient Substitutions
You can switch in dark or white chocolate or even a peanut butter cup for a new spin on flavor. Use large regular marshmallows chopped for the inside if minis are not available. Whole wheat or gluten free tortillas also work if you want a different grain base.
