1. Prepare the fruit by slicing the banana into thin rounds and hulling and slicing the strawberries into thin pieces.
2. Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface and spread 1.5 tablespoons of almond butter evenly across it, leaving a small border around the edges.
3. Arrange a layer of banana slices over half of the tortilla, followed by a layer of sliced strawberries. Drizzle the fruit with a little honey, then sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon.
4. Fold the tortilla in half, pressing gently to seal the edges. Repeat the process with the second tortilla and remaining ingredients.
5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Swirl the butter around to coat the bottom of the skillet.
6. Place the folded quesadillas in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and slightly crisp.
7. Remove the quesadillas from the skillet and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before cutting each one into wedges.
8. Optional: Dust the quesadilla wedges with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh mint leaves for a decorative touch.
9. Serve warm and enjoy!
