Description

A delightful and quick Blueberry Breakfast Quesadilla that combines fresh blueberries, melted mozzarella cheese, and a hint of cinnamon inside a warm, crispy flour tortilla. Perfect for a cozy morning treat that’s both sweet and savory.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp butter or cooking oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a bowl, mix fresh blueberries with shredded mozzarella cheese and ground cinnamon until well combined to create a flavorful and balanced filling.
  2. Heat the skillet: Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add butter or cooking oil, allowing it to melt and coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
  3. Assemble the quesadilla: Place one tortilla flat in the skillet. Spoon the blueberry-cheese-cinnamon mixture over half of the tortilla, then fold the other half over to create a half-moon shape.
  4. Cook the first side: Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the tortilla turns golden brown and the cheese begins to melt, then carefully flip the quesadilla to cook the other side.
  5. Cook the second side: Continue cooking until the second side is crisp and golden, ensuring the filling is heated through.
  6. Serve: Remove the quesadilla from the skillet, let it cool slightly for safety, then slice into wedges and serve warm for a delicious breakfast experience.

Notes

  • Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor and texture.
  • For a sweeter touch, drizzle a small amount of honey or maple syrup before folding the tortilla.
  • Substitute mozzarella with a mild melting cheese like Monterey Jack if preferred.
  • Serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for extra indulgence.
  • To make it vegan, use plant-based cheese and a suitable oil instead of butter.
