I made myself another yummy quesadilla for lunch this week. This time the filling was crispy bacon, cheddar cheese and delicious apples, drizzled with maple syrup. This would be a perfect lunch with a green salad and small bowl of soup. Simple, but filling, and very tasty! I absolutely loved it. I will be making this quesadilla again for sure, maybe in the fall when apples are season. Enjoy!
Ingredients
(4 Servings)
8 flour tortillas
1 apple, peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 bacon slices, cooked and cut into small pieces
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Maple Syrup for serving
Directions
On a work surface, spread 2 of the tortillas. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the bottom of each tortilla.
Add the apples evenly on top of the cheese, sprinkle with cinnamon, then top with bacon. Top with another tortilla.
Heat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray over medium heat.
Carefully place 1 quesadilla in pan and cook 2 minutes. Using a spatula, gently flip the quesadilla and cook an additional 2 minutes until lightly browned and cheese is melted.
Repeat with second quesadilla. Serve warm and drizzle with maple syrup.

I love Quesadillas…Looks so yummy!!!
I love the combination of apple and cheese in a quesadilla and adding bacon would make it even better. Looks great!
sounds like a great combination of flavors
They look so delicious…maybe I shall clean up the fridge and use some leftover to create some quesadilla.
yum! what a great combo under a tortilla!
I love how you added the apple! I love adding apple in savory dishes like this…it’s so delicious!
Thank you everyone for visiting! I truly appreciate it!
I just got to my son’s house, and he has tortilla’s and cheese, I brought the rest!
This sound and look tasty…
Apple, cheese and bacon… delicious!
I have never had apples and melted cheese together – will definitely be trying this one out!
It’s a great flavor combo. Next time try a little chopped scallion with it.
Joan- Scallion is a great idea!
I wouldn’t have thought of the maple syrup, nice touch!
Cripes – you are going to make me forget all my good new years intentions – thank you so much! This is much more fun

Love Quesadillas, nver thought pairing cheese and apple before
MMMMMMMMM,…now that’s an apart filling!! I so love this!!
Me gusta mucho, Erica!!
sounds delicous.Love the touch of cinammon.
Thank you!
This is an amazing flavor combination. I had a crepe with this filling once in Montreal, drizzled with a little local maple syrup. AMAZING!
Does everything taste better with bacon? Yes. Yes it does. And even more so with maple syrup. Love this idea!
The flavors sound just great together in this quesadilla. We eat them a lot with tomato soup – or any soup that doesn’t have a lot of substance.
I’ve never tried putting apples into my quesadilla, but this loos GOOD! I’m going to plan on making this recipe!
