A quick, sweet-savory morning treat that combines cream cheese, fresh blueberries, and honey in a crispy tortilla.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 flour tortillas (8-inch, whole-wheat or gluten-free optional)
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 12 tbsp honey or pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon (plus extra to dust)
  • Cooking spray or 1–2 tbsp butter for the skillet

Instructions

  1. Prep: Let the cream cheese sit at room temperature 10–15 minutes so it’s easy to spread. If using frozen blueberries, thaw and pat dry.
  2. Spread: Place a tortilla on a plate. Spread about 1–2 tbsp softened cream cheese evenly over one half of the tortilla.
  3. Top: Sprinkle 1/4 cup blueberries over the cream cheese. Drizzle a little honey or maple syrup and sprinkle a tiny pinch of cinnamon.
  4. Fold: Fold the tortilla in half to make a semi-circle. Press gently so the filling stays in place.
  5. Heat skillet: Warm a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add a light coating of cooking spray or a small knob of butter.
  6. Cook: Place the folded quesadilla in the skillet. Cook 2–3 minutes until the underside is golden and crisp. Flip carefully and cook another 2–3 minutes.
  7. Rest and slice: Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 1 minute. Cut into wedges and serve warm.

Notes

For a vegan option, use a plant-based cream cheese and vegan butter, and maple syrup instead of honey. You can also add chopped nuts for extra crunch.
