Description
A delicious and easy-to-make breakfast quesadilla filled with fresh blueberries and cream cheese, perfect for a morning treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional)
- 1 tablespoon butter (for cooking)
- Maple syrup (for serving)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Gently mash the blueberries with a fork to release some juices and set aside.
- In another bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, vanilla extract, honey, and cinnamon until smooth and well combined.
- Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture over half of each tortilla.
- Spoon the blueberry mixture over the cream cheese on each tortilla. If using, sprinkle shredded coconut on top.
- Fold each tortilla in half to create a quesadilla.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, place the quesadillas in the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the skillet and let cool for a minute before slicing into wedges.
- Serve warm with maple syrup drizzled on top.
Notes
- For a healthier option, substitute the cream cheese with Greek yogurt and reduce the sugar.
- Add sliced bananas or strawberries to the filling for extra fruit flavor and variety.
