Main Ingredients
- 2 medium flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella or mild cheddar cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter or cooking spray
- Honey or maple syrup, for drizzling (optional)
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather fresh blueberries, shredded cheese, and your tortillas. Rinse the blueberries and pat them dry thoroughly to prevent sogginess. Measure out the cheese and get your cooking surface ready.
- Assemble the Quesadilla: Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Evenly sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese over half of the tortilla, then scatter the fresh blueberries on top of the cheese. Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon over the filling, then fold the tortilla in half, covering the filling.
- Toast to Golden Perfection: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter or cooking spray to coat the surface lightly. Place the folded quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until the tortilla turns golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted inside. Gently press with a spatula while cooking to seal and evenly melt the cheese.
- Serve Warm: Remove the quesadilla from the skillet. Slice into wedges and drizzle honey or maple syrup on top if desired for extra sweetness. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Spread cheese evenly to ensure each bite is gooey and flavorful.
- Avoid overfilling with blueberries to prevent soggy quesadillas.
- Cook on medium heat to avoid burning the tortilla before the cheese melts.
- Use fresh blueberries for the best texture and taste.
- Press gently with a spatula during cooking to help seal the quesadilla and melt cheese evenly.
