# Instructions:
01 -
In a medium bowl, combine 4 oz Cream Cheese (softened), 1 cup Fresh Blueberries, 2 tbsp Maple Syrup, 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract, 1/4 tsp Ground Cinnamon, a Pinch of Salt, and 1 tbsp Whole Milk. Mix well until smooth and creamy. This forms the heart of your Blueberry Breakfast Quesadilla: Quick 10-Minute Breakfast.
02 -
Lay out 4 small (6-inch) Flour Tortillas. Evenly divide and spread the creamy blueberry mixture over one half of each tortilla, leaving a small border. This ensures a neat fold for your delicious Blueberry Breakfast Quesadilla: Quick 10-Minute Breakfast.
03 -
Gently fold the empty half of each tortilla over the filling, creating a crescent shape. Press down lightly to seal the edges. This prepares your quesadillas for cooking, ensuring the filling stays put for a perfect bite.
04 -
Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tbsp Unsalted Butter and let it melt, swirling to coat the pan. Ensure the butter is evenly distributed for golden-brown tortillas.
05 -
Place two folded quesadillas into the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the filling is warm. Repeat with the remaining two quesadillas. This quick cooking ensures a crispy exterior for your Blueberry Breakfast Quesadilla: Quick 10-Minute Breakfast.
06 -
Transfer the cooked quesadillas to a cutting board. Sprinkle with 2 tbsp Sliced Almonds, dust with 1 tbsp Powdered Sugar, and finish with 1/2 tsp Lemon Zest. Slice each quesadilla in half and serve immediately for the best flavor.
# Notes:
01 -
Don't overfill the tortillas; a thin, even layer of filling works best to prevent spillage and ensure even cooking.
02 -
If using frozen blueberries, thaw them completely and drain any excess liquid before mixing into the cream cheese filling.
03 -
For an extra touch, serve with a side of Greek yogurt or a drizzle of additional maple syrup.
04 -
These quesadillas are best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated gently in a skillet.
