Cinnamon Cream Cheese Blueberry Quesadilla!
My son insists he isn’t getting married. Girls are a bother to him, he says he has better things to do like play sports and LEGO’s. My husband was giving him a hard time the other day and told him, “Some day you will meet a girl that steals your heart… and all your money!” HA! We got a good laugh at that.
Blueberry Breakfast Quesadillas don’t just have to be for breakfast, they work for any meal! They are quick and easy and you can pair any flavor of cream cheese with any kind of fruit. This is a great idea for when you have fruit to use up!
Why this Recipe Works:
- Simple Ingredients, Big Flavor – Sweet cinnamon cream cheese and fresh blueberries create a delicious combination that is both comforting and refreshing.
- Quick and Easy to Make – With just a handful of ingredients and minimal prep, it’s perfect for busy mornings.
- Perfect Balance of Textures – The crispy, golden tortilla contrasts beautifully with the creamy filling and juicy berries.
- Great for Breakfast or Brunch – It’s satisfying enough for breakfast yet special enough to serve at weekend brunch gatherings.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 1 Burrito Size Flour Tortilla – The outer wrap that holds everything together and becomes golden when toasted.
- 2 tbsp Cinnamon Cream Cheese – Adds creamy texture and sweet cinnamon flavor.
- 1/3 cup Fresh Blueberries – Provides natural sweetness, juiciness, and a burst of fresh fruit flavor.
- 1 tbsp Butter (Softened) – Spread on the tortilla and use for cooking to help it brown and crisp up.
- Cinnamon & Sugar (Optional) – A sweet finishing touch sprinkled on top for extra flavor.
How to Make Blueberry Breakfast Quesadillas
- Spread 2 tbsp cinnamon cream cheese on one side of a burrito size flour tortilla.
- Sprinkle 1/3 cup blueberries over half of it. Fold other side over and press down lightly.
- Spread 1/2 tbsp softened butter on one outside of the quesadilla, flip and spread the remaining 1/2 tbsp butter on the other outside. Optional: Generously sprinkle cinnamon and sugar over the buttered sides.
- Place on a skillet over medium heat and grill each side until golden brown.
My Best Tips:
- Use Fresh, Firm Blueberries – It is best to use fresh blueberries. When you use frozen, you’ll have excessive blueberry juice running out of the quesadilla and it gets really messy!
- Don’t Overfill – You’ll have a disaster if you overfill these with blueberries. You want enough so you can taste them, but you don’t want so many that they are falling out with every bite.
- Use Any Flavor Combination – Try any combination of fruit and cream cheese in this recipe!
- Don’t Make Ahead – These don’t work great for making ahead. It’s best to eat them right away.
