Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 medium flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (mozzarella or cheddar recommended)
  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil (for cooking)

Optional Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (for drizzling)
  • Pinch of cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: Whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and optional cinnamon. Scramble them in a pan over medium heat until just cooked and fluffy. Set aside to cool slightly before assembling.
  2. Assemble the quesadilla: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Evenly spread shredded cheese over half, followed by a generous spoonful of scrambled eggs and scattered fresh blueberries. Fold the other half over to create a half-moon shape.
  3. Cook the quesadilla: Heat a small amount of butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the folded quesadilla in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden and crispy and the cheese is melted.
  4. Serve warm: Remove from the pan, let it cool for a moment, then slice into wedges and drizzle with a little honey or maple syrup if desired.

Notes

  • Use low heat to prevent burning the tortilla and allow cheese to melt perfectly.
  • Don’t overload the quesadilla with filling to make folding and cooking easier.
  • Use ripe, firm fresh blueberries to avoid sogginess inside the quesadilla.
  • Pre-shred cheese yourself for better melting compared to pre-shredded varieties.
  • Toast both sides evenly by flipping gently to achieve the best texture contrast.
