Brunch Enchiladas

  4.4 – 250 reviews  • Enchilada Recipes

Delicious cinnamon-spiced apple dumplings are made by encasing crisp apples in flaky biscuit dough and topping them with a luscious butter sauce. When biscuit dough in a can was first created, my grandma received this recipe from her grandmother. And our family hasn’t stopped producing it ever!

Absolutely delicious! I used deli ham and didn’t chop it up. Also used green chilis instead of peppers. And, I only used the 2 cups of half and half. Skipped the extra milk. It was just delicious!
Andrew Baker
This is wonderful! Have been making this for Christmas morning for years. I do substitute cooked bacon for the ham. Very easy if you pre-cook bacon and keep it in freezer. Onions and peppers are pre-cut day before along with egg mixture.
Elizabeth Kelley
These were excellent! I made them lower carb by using low carb tortillas, and eliminating the flour. Added fresh spinach to the veggies and a combination of ground and chopped ham. Used 6 eggs, 1.25c of heavy cream and 1/2cup of almond milk and water to bring it to 2 cups total. Combination of cheese that was in the fridge. Will definitely make again!
Patricia Salas
this is amazing! I made it ahead of time and froze it for when we had lots of company. now I’m about to make another two pans of it and freeze it for more company!
Pamela Taylor
It was very good. The tortilla shells were a little softer than I expected. I will make it again.

I read the reviews and made some changes. I added a 6th egg, used yellow instead of green pepper and substituted sausage for the ham. Everyone loved it. Being able to make it the night before is a great time saver.
Shawn Glover
Everyone loved it. I used ground breakfast sausage instead of ham. I browned the sausage with red bell pepper and the green onions. The ham would be good too but ground sausage was easier. Next time I plan to use the ham.

I don’t have a food processor so just used shaved ham. No hot sauce, as kids would be eating it. I tried to roll the tortillas tightly, but the liquid didn’t completely cover them, which I read in other reviews was a problem with no solution. I had to bake them 70 minutes until they were set. The end result was okay, but kinda plain and I would’ve preferred something else. I brought it to a potluck that had 20 attendees and I took half of it home, so it was a mediocre sell there as well. would skip it.
Michelle Brewer
This was very tasty. The leftovers are really good too! I used sweet red pepper instead of green, but other than that followed the recipe.
Dale Reid
Excellent, even in spite of the fact that I decided to make it last minute so the eggs did not soak the enchiladas overnight. I also left my ham in strips and chunks so as not to wake sleeping family members by using the food processor. Very tasty!
Harold Miller
Pretty rich, but very good with Frank’s (to season it to your own taste, especially in a bigger group)! Good brunch fare!
Courtney Foster
Very tasty! Kids loved it, even the ones that hate egg.
Susan Williams
I read other reviews and used the tip about covering the tortillas completely so when baked are not hard. My family really liked this. I made this for my sons family for our Thanksgiving breakfast. Super easy recipe. Chris H.
Amy Armstrong
Loved this recipe and will definitely make it again. The only change made was that we only used 4 flour tacos to put the ham filling in. Thinking about adding black beans into the food processor with the ham next time.
Daniel Schultz
I added cooked chicken it was delicious Even the original recipe. Is perfect Thx
Danielle Brown
This was ok. I made it as listed with the exception of cutting it in half for the two of us, but I think it would have better with corn tortillas. I think I’ll stick Huevos Rancheros.
Christopher Willis
I LOVED these enchiladas, served with AR Pico de Gallo, sour cream and avocado. Halved the recipe for the two of us.I substituted a blackened poblano for the green bell pepper as that’s what I had on hand. Delicious! Added 1 teaspoon ground cumin and doubled the garlic powder and hot sauce. We like a lot of flavor and these did not disappoint! My husband isn’t too keen on breakfast foods for dinner, but I loved them. He can eat the leftovers for breakfast!
Julie Wilson
I made it exactly as stated in the recipe. As other reviewers said I tried to get the egg mixture over all of the tortilla. It was very good. I will definitely make it again.
Raymond Clark
Delicious!! Great if your having company. prepare the night before and just pop it in in the morning.
Justin Spears
We didn’t have ham, so used breakfast sausage instead. We liked how the tortillas were a little crisp on the top. We felt it needed salt and pepper and perhaps some kind of cheesy sauce or salsa would be a nice addition. Would be great with pico de gallo.
Anthony Little
I used turkey sausage instead of ham, and everyone loved it!
