Notes
To make this Blueberry Breakfast Quesadilla gluten free, use a certified gluten-free tortilla.
Choose a gluten-free tortilla that is soft and flexible enough to fold without cracking.
Confirm that the cream cheese or Greek yogurt, shredded cheese, honey or maple syrup, cinnamon, butter or coconut oil, powdered sugar, and toppings are labeled gluten free.
If using frozen blueberries, check the package to ensure there are no gluten-containing additives or cross-contact warnings.
Prepare the quesadilla with clean utensils, a clean skillet, and a gluten-free cooking surface to prevent gluten cross-contact.
