This Blueberry Breakfast Quesadilla is a quick, cozy, and satisfying morning treat made with creamy cinnamon-spiced cream cheese and juicy blueberries folded in a crisp, golden tortilla. It’s perfect for busy mornings or a relaxed brunch.

  • Total Time: 16 minutes
  • Yield: 1 serving

Ingredients

  • 1 large flour tortilla (or whole wheat)
  • 23 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • A pinch of cinnamon
  • ¼ cup fresh blueberries (or thawed frozen blueberries)
  • Cooking spray or butter

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with cinnamon and honey or maple syrup if using.
  2. Spread the cream cheese mixture over half of the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
  3. Sprinkle the blueberries evenly over the cream cheese layer and fold the tortilla in half.
  4. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add a little butter or cooking spray.
  5. Cook the quesadilla for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden and crisp, pressing gently with a spatula.
  6. Remove from the skillet and let cool slightly before slicing into wedges.
  7. Serve as-is or drizzle with honey and pair with Greek yogurt if desired.

Notes

  • Use fresh or well-drained thawed blueberries to avoid sogginess.
  • Try with other fruits like strawberries, peaches, or raspberries.
  • Can be made dairy-free using plant-based cream cheese or yogurt.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
  • Reheat in a skillet or toaster oven for best texture.
