My morning routine changed forever when I discovered Dunkin’s Wake Up Wrap. Running late for a client meeting, I dashed into Dunkin’ and grabbed what looked like the quickest option—a small tortilla wrapped around eggs, cheese, and bacon. That first bite in my car was a revelation! How could something so simple taste so satisfying? When my busy schedule made regular Dunkin’ runs impossible, I became determined to recreate that magic at home. I perfected this copycat recipe. Instead of the morning drive-thru scramble, I spend about an hour Sunday prepping a week’s worth of these wraps. My favorite part? Knowing exactly what goes into my breakfast while saving time and money every morning.

What Makes the Dunkin Wake-up Wrap the Perfect Breakfast for on the Go
This copycat Dunkin’ Donuts Wake Up Wrap delivers the perfect combination of convenience and satisfaction that makes the original so popular. The recipe’s brilliance lies in its simplicity—just four key ingredients that come together in a portable, protein-packed breakfast. The American cheese melts perfectly against the warm tortilla, creating a creamy foundation for the savory, crispy bacon and fluffy eggs. Breaking the egg yolk and spreading it across the whites ensures even cooking and proper texture in every bite.
The tortilla gets just enough direct heat to become pliable and slightly crisp on the outside while remaining soft inside. Best of all, these wraps can be made ahead and frozen, making them even more convenient than driving to Dunkin’—just 60 seconds in the microwave transforms them into a hot, fresh-tasting breakfast on the busiest mornings.

For the Basic Wake Up Wrap:
- Flour tortilla (8-inch) – Creates the perfect portable wrapper

How To Make a Dunkin Donuts Wake Up Wrap
To make a copycat Dunkin bacon egg and cheese wake up wrap:
- Cook the bacon. If you are only making one or two Wake Up Wraps, it may be easier to cook the bacon on the stovetop. But cooking the bacon in an oven is your best bet for more than that. Here is an excellent way of baking bacon in the oven.
- Heat a medium skillet or a flattop grill over medium heat.
- Add butter or oil to the pan to the skillet.
- Once the butter stops foaming, crack the eggs onto the cooking surface. Leave at least an inch between each egg.
- After the eggs are set on the bottom (about 15 seconds), use a fork to break the yolks and spread them across the whites.
- Flip the eggs to sear the yolks for about 20 seconds.
- Remove the eggs from the cooking surface and let them drain on a paper towel.
- Wipe out the pan with a paper towel.
- Heat a tortilla in the pan for about 30 seconds and flip.
- Immediately add the slice of cheese to the tortilla.
- Break a strip of cooked bacon in half and put it on top of the cheese.
- Add the cooked egg.
- Use a spatula to help you fold the tortilla into a burrito.
- Remove to a plate.
- Repeat with other tortillas.

My husband loves the wake up wraps when he asked me to make them at home I was like CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! 😁
I used a soft taco so they were a bit bigger (better) I utilized a variety of cheeses for each person’s taste and added a little salsa dipping sauce. My husband thoroughly enjoyed 👍👍
I love Dunkin Donuts Wake Up Wraps! I always get one when I go to the store.
