Ingredients
- 1 large flour tortilla
- 2–3 tablespoons Nutella (or your favorite chocolate hazelnut spread)
- 1 ripe banana (sliced thinly)
- 1 tablespoon butter (for cooking)
- Optional toppings: powdered sugar, whipped cream, fresh strawberries, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup
Instructions
Step 1: Assemble the Quesadilla
- Lay the tortilla flat on a clean surface.
- Spread an even layer of Nutella over one-half of the tortilla.
- Arrange the banana slices on top of the Nutella layer.
- Fold the tortilla in half to create a semi-circle.
Step 2: Cook the Quesadilla
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the pan.
- Place the folded tortilla in the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
- Flip the quesadilla carefully and cook the other side for another 2–3 minutes until golden and the Nutella is melted.
Step 3: Serve
- Transfer the quesadilla to a plate and let it cool slightly.
- Slice it into wedges and serve as is or top with powdered sugar, whipped cream, or fresh fruit for extra flair.
Tips for the Best Banana Nutella Quesadilla
- Add a Crunch: Sprinkle chopped nuts (e.g., hazelnuts or almonds) over the Nutella before folding.
- Sweet and Savory: Add a pinch of sea salt or spread a thin layer of peanut butter alongside the Nutella for an extra flavor twist.
- Make It Dessert-Ready: Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat.
