Tortilla breakfast accordion: fold tortillas accordion-style around a baking dish, stuff the folds with ham, sausage and cheese, pour over a herby egg-milk custard and bake at 180°C until golden. Crispy, melty and savoury.
Instructions
- 1
Fold each tortilla like an accordion and place them vertically around the edge of a round baking dish, creating a circular pattern.
- 2
Stuff the accordion folds with ham, smoked sausage, and cheese.
- 3
In a bowl, whisk 4 eggs with Italian herb mix, salt, and milk.
- 4
Pour the egg mixture over the stuffed tortillas, making sure it seeps into all the folds.
- 5
Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 18 minutes (or air fryer at 180°C (350°F) for 12 minutes) until golden brown on top.
18:00 - 6
Slice and serve. Each piece is a blend of crispy tortilla, melty cheese, savory meats, and fluffy egg.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I make the accordion shape?
Fold each tortilla back and forth like a fan, then stand them on edge around a round dish so the pleats face up — that is what holds the fillings and egg.
Air fryer or oven?
Both work: bake at 180°C for 18 minutes, or air-fry at 180°C for about 12 minutes, until golden on top and the egg is set.
What fillings work best?
Any cooked meat and melting cheese — ham, salami, smoked sausage, cheddar or mozzarella. Tuck them deep into the folds so every slice gets some.
