  • Author: Sophia Turner
  • Total Time: 18 minute

Ingredients

– 1 cup pumpkin puree
– 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or a blend)
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– ½ teaspoon chili powder
– 4 large flour tortillas
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Optional: Fresh cilantro for garnish


Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your Cheesy Pumpkin Quesadillas easily:

1. Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine pumpkin puree, shredded cheese, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.
2. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
3. Assemble Quesadillas: Lay one tortilla in the skillet, spread a generous portion of the pumpkin filling on half of the tortilla, and fold it over.
4. Cook Until Golden: Cook for about 3-5 minutes, checking occasionally to ensure it’s not burning. The tortilla should be golden and crispy.
5. Flip: Carefully flip the quesadilla to cook the other side until it’s just as golden, about another 3-5 minutes.
6. Repeat: Remove the cooked quesadilla and keep it warm. Repeat the process with the second tablespoon of olive oil and the remaining tortillas and filling.
7. Slice: Once all quesadillas are cooked, slice them into wedges for easy serving.
8. Garnish: If desired, sprinkle fresh cilantro over the top for an added touch of flavor.

These steps will guide you to create Cheesy Pumpkin Quesadillas that are both delectable and visually appealing.
