Egg White Wraps

Egg whites are transformed into a sturdy, flavorful wrap through gentle cooking in a non-stick skillet. The thin, tender layers can be filled with a variety of ingredients, making them a versatile, high-protein alternative to traditional bread or tortillas. The final wraps are delicate yet firm, with a slightly golden edge and a smooth, matte surface.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 large egg whites fresh and room temperature for best results
  • a pinch none salt enhances flavor and helps whites set
  • a dash none pepper optional, for a subtle kick
  • a light spray or teaspoon none neutral oil or non-stick spray for preventing sticking and easy flipping

Equipment

  • Non-stick skillet
  • Silicone spatula
  • Small bowl
  • Whisk or fork

Method
 

  1. Crack the egg whites into a small bowl and whisk until just combined and slightly frothy, about 15 seconds.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly spray with oil or non-stick spray.
  3. Pour the whisked egg whites into the skillet, tilting the pan gently to spread into a thin, even layer. Cook until the edges lift slightly and the surface appears matte, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Check for a matte surface and slight golden edges; when ready, carefully flip the egg white layer with a silicone spatula.
  5. Cook the second side for another 30 seconds until lightly golden, then transfer the wrap to a plate and let it rest for 30 seconds to settle.
  6. Gently transfer the cooked egg white wrap onto a cutting board or plate. Fill with your preferred ingredients such as veggies, meats, or cheeses.
  7. Fold or roll the wrap as desired, then serve immediately or keep warm wrapped in foil for later.

Notes

For best results, cook on gentle heat and handle delicately when flipping. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat in a skillet until warm and slightly crispy.
