Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter
- powdered sugar or extra honey for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Cream Cheese Mixture: In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Assemble Quesadilla: Lay one tortilla flat and spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over it. Sprinkle the blueberries evenly across the surface and dust lightly with cinnamon. Top with the second tortilla.
- Cook Quesadilla: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and place the quesadilla in the pan. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp.
- Serve: Remove from skillet, let cool slightly, then cut into wedges. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with honey if desired. Serve warm.
Notes
- Frozen blueberries work well—no need to thaw, just use them straight from the freezer.
- You can substitute ricotta or mascarpone for cream cheese, or add a few banana slices for extra sweetness.
