Blueberry Breakfast Quesadilla

A delicious and easy breakfast quesadilla filled with creamy cheese, fresh blueberries, and a touch of honey or maple syrup, cooked until golden and crisp.

  • Total Time: 11 minutes
  • Yield: 1 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large tortilla (whole wheat, white, or gluten-free)
  • ½ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon cream cheese or Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • ¼ cup shredded mozzarella or mild cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon butter or coconut oil for cooking
  • Powdered sugar or additional honey (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese (or Greek yogurt), honey (or maple syrup), and cinnamon. Stir until smooth and well blended.
  2. Assemble the quesadilla: Lay the tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over one half of the tortilla.
  3. Add the fillings: Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the cream mixture. Then, distribute the blueberries on top of the cheese.
  4. Fold the tortilla: Gently fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling and press down lightly to secure.
  5. Cook the quesadilla: Heat the butter (or coconut oil) in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the folded quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp.
  6. Cool and serve: Remove the quesadilla from the pan and allow it to rest for 1 minute before slicing into wedges. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with honey, if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

This recipe is versatile and can be made gluten-free by using gluten-free tortillas. For a sweeter touch, add a sprinkle of powdered sugar or a drizzle of honey before serving.
