Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a skillet over medium heat, add your ground beef and cook until browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
  2. Return the skillet to medium heat, pour in ¼ cup of water along with the taco seasoning, and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes until the liquid evaporates.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked beef, cream cheese, sour cream, and salt. Mix until creamy.
  4. Lay out the tortillas and evenly distribute the beef mixture across each, then sprinkle shredded cheddar on top.
  5. Roll each tortilla tightly from one end to the other, then slice into 1-inch wide pinwheels.
  6. Preheat your air fryer to 370°F. Arrange pinwheels in a single layer in the basket and cook for 5 minutes until crispy.
  7. Remove pinwheels using tongs and serve warm with dipping sauces.
