Description

The Blueberry Breakfast Quesadilla is a sweet and savory twist on the classic quesadilla, combining fresh blueberries, cream cheese, cinnamon, and a crispy tortilla. It’s a delicious, quick, and healthy breakfast option, packed with flavor and a balance of textures.


Ingredients

  • Flour Tortilla: For a crispy, golden outer layer.
  • Fresh Blueberries: For a burst of natural sweetness and antioxidants.
  • Cream Cheese: Adds a creamy, smooth texture and flavor.
  • Cinnamon: A warm spice that complements the blueberries.
  • Honey: A natural sweetener for added sweetness.
  • Greek Yogurt: A creamy, tangy topping that enhances flavor.
  • Almonds: For a crunchy topping and extra texture.


Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix cream cheese, honey, and cinnamon until smooth and creamy.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly cook the tortilla on both sides for 1-2 minutes, or until golden.
  3. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over one half of the tortilla.
  4. Top the cream cheese with fresh blueberries and drizzle a little honey over them.
  5. Fold the tortilla in half and press gently. Cook for another 2-3 minutes per side until crispy and golden.
  6. Remove from the skillet, cut into wedges, and top with Greek yogurt and chopped almonds.

Notes

  • Don’t overfill the quesadilla, as it can be hard to cook evenly.
  • For a more decadent version, drizzle with maple syrup or sprinkle powdered sugar.
  • If using frozen blueberries, thaw them first to avoid excess moisture.
  • For a vegan version, swap cream cheese and Greek yogurt for dairy-free alternatives.
