For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a pinch of lemon zest to the cream cheese mixture. Serve these chimichangas immediately while they are warm and the tortillas are crisp. They are delicious on their own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. If you don't have an air fryer, you can bake these chimichangas in a preheated oven at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for approximately 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened Neufchatel cheese, sour cream, sugar, and vanilla extract. Using an electric hand mixer, beat until smooth and well combined. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them. (5 minutes)
02
Step
3 mins
Warm the tortillas in a large skillet over medium heat or directly on the grates of a gas stove until softened and pliable. This will prevent them from cracking when rolled. (2-3 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
Place approximately 1/4 cup of the blueberry-cream cheese mixture down the center of each warmed tortilla. Fold in the top and bottom edges of the tortilla, then roll tightly to form a burrito shape. (5 minutes)
04
Step
2 mins
Lightly mist each chimichanga with avocado oil cooking spray. Place the chimichangas in the basket of your air fryer, ensuring they are not overcrowded. (2 minutes)
05
Step
8 mins
Air fry at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 4 to 6 minutes, until the chimichangas are golden brown. Carefully flip each chimichanga over, mist again with cooking spray, and continue to air fry for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, until golden brown on both sides. (6-8 minutes)
06
Step
2 mins
Remove the chimichangas from the air fryer and let them cool slightly. (2 minutes)
07
Step
3 mins
In a shallow bowl, mix together the sugar and ground cinnamon. While the chimichangas are still slightly warm, lightly spray each one with avocado oil and roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated. (3 minutes)

May 8, 2025I didn't have Neufchatel cheese, so I used regular cream cheese and it worked just fine.
