- 1/2 cup mozzarella or cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tbsp cream cheese
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp butter
Instructions
- Prepare Tortillas: Spread cream cheese evenly on one side of each flour tortilla to add creaminess and help ingredients stick together.
- Layer Ingredients: Arrange peach slices evenly over the cream cheese layer, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese on top for a savory contrast.
- Add Sweetness: Drizzle the honey over the layered ingredients to enhance the sweet-savory balance.
- Assemble Quesadillas: Close the tortillas by folding or placing one over the other, ensuring all ingredients are securely enclosed.
- Heat the Pan: Warm the butter in a skillet or frying pan over medium heat until melted and sizzling.

Notes
