Is there a way to keep a breakfast burrito warm without it getting soggy?

Question

I make breakfast burritos in advance and eat them during my commute, usually 20-30 minutes after assembly. By the time I eat them the tortilla has gone soft and a bit soggy from the steam inside.

Is there a wrapping or holding technique that keeps the burrito warm without creating the steam problem?

For holds longer than 30 minutes: omit the crema entirely during assembly and add it fresh at eating time if you have it available. The crema is the main source of interior moisture that causes sogginess on longer holds.
