Ingredients

• 2 pieces Flour tortillas (8-inch)
• 1 medium Apple (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons Caramel sauce
• 0.25 cups Shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
• 1 teaspoons Powdered sugar (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel, core, and dice the apple into small cubes.

Step 2

In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the diced apple, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon. Cook for 4-5 minutes while stirring, until the apples are tender and caramelized.

Step 3

Remove the cooked apples from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

Wipe the skillet clean, then melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.

Step 5

Place one tortilla flat into the skillet. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese (if using) over the tortilla.

Step 6

Spread the cooked apples evenly across the tortilla, then drizzle 1 tablespoon of caramel sauce over the apples.

Step 7

Sprinkle the remaining cheese (if using) on top, and place the second tortilla over the filling to create a quesadilla sandwich.

Step 8

Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown, then carefully flip and cook the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese is melted.

Step 9

Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing into wedges.

Step 10

Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of caramel sauce over the quesadilla, sprinkle with powdered sugar, and serve warm.
