Description

A whimsical take on the classic quesadilla, featuring a creamy filling of cream cheese and juicy blueberries, enhanced with cinnamon and honey.


Ingredients

  • 1 large wheat flour tortilla
  • 4 oz softened cream cheese
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Butter or cooking spray (as needed)


Instructions

  1. Soften the cream cheese by letting it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  2. Prepare the blueberries by gently rinsing them under cool water and patting them dry.
  3. Spread the softened cream cheese evenly over one half of the tortilla.
  4. Add the fresh blueberries on top of the cream cheese, then drizzle with honey or maple syrup and sprinkle with cinnamon.
  5. Fold the tortilla in half, pressing lightly to secure the filling.
  6. Cook the quesadilla in a skillet over medium heat with a bit of butter or cooking spray.
  7. Golden brown it for 2-3 minutes on each side until crispy.
  8. Slice the cooked quesadilla into wedges for serving.

Notes
