A delightful twist on the classic quesadilla, combining the sweetness of apples with the creamy richness of Gouda cheese.
Lay a tortilla flat and sprinkle a quarter of the cheese on one half.
Use a sharp knife to evenly slice the cheese for consistent melting.
Arrange apple slices over the cheese, slightly overlapping them.
Choose apples with a balance of sweetness and tartness for a more complex flavor.
Fold the tortilla in half to enclose the filling.
Press gently to ensure the filling stays in place.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat and place the folded tortilla in the skillet.
Cook one side until golden brown before flipping to avoid spillage.
Cook until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden on both sides, then remove from the skillet.
Use a spatula to press down slightly for even cooking.
Slice the quesadilla into wedges and serve warm.
Serve with a side of sour cream or salsa for added flavor.
