Notes
I like to use two types of melting cheese in my taco pie. I went with some Mexican cheese and some pizza cheese. Both were grated when I bought them.
Its okay if you have some liquid at the bottom of your cake pan after transferring out the ingredients. This is good because it stops the tortilla wraps from sticking and makes it easier from removing it once done.
When layering the tortilla wraps break them up like you do with lasagne sheets so that they slightly overlap but there are no holes.
I recommend using 4 large tortilla wraps as when they are broken down and torn, they will easily cover the different layers of your air fryer taco pie.
You can mix up the cheese on each cheese layer of your taco pie or use one type of cheese on each section. You can also use any type of cheese that melts well.
