Blueberry Breakfast Quesadilla Tasty Morning Treat
Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons butter or coconut oil
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella or dairy-free cheese alternative
- 0 Optional: Sliced bananas or chopped nuts for added texture
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Lay out two tortillas on a clean surface. Spread half of the cream cheese mixture evenly across each tortilla.
- Scatter fresh blueberries over the cream cheese layer on both tortillas. If desired, add slices of banana or a sprinkle of chopped nuts for a crunchy element.
- Top each with a second tortilla to create two quesadilla sandwiches.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter (or coconut oil) over medium heat. Once hot, place the first quesadilla in the skillet and reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side or until golden brown and crisp. Carefully flip using a spatula and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side.
- Once both sides are crispy, remove the quesadilla from the skillet and repeat the process for the second quesadilla.
- Allow the quesadillas to cool slightly before slicing them into wedges.
- Serve warm, drizzled with extra honey or maple syrup, and topped with additional blueberries or banana slices if desired.
💡 Chef's Notes
For a vegan option, substitute cream cheese with a dairy-free alternative and use coconut oil.
