Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Tortillas (flour or whole wheat)
- 1 large Bananas
- 0.25 cups Chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk)
- 2 tablespoons Peanut butter (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
Peel the banana and slice it into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick. Set aside.
Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. If using, spread 1 tablespoon of peanut butter evenly over the surface of the tortilla.
Evenly distribute the banana slices over half of the tortilla, leaving the other half plain for folding later.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the banana slices. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon for extra flavor.
Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling and press gently to seal.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt 1/2 tablespoon of butter.
Place the folded tortilla in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
Carefully flip the quesadilla, add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of butter to the skillet, and cook the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown and the chocolate is melted.
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and allow it to cool slightly. Slice it into triangular wedges with a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Banana Quesadillas as a sweet treat!
