Ingredients
- 2 small tortillas
- Handful of shredded cheese
- Nonstick cooking spray
Optional Fillings:
- Salsa (not too liquidy)
- Sour cream
- Refried beans
- BBQ sauce
- Cooked chicken, beef, lamb or pork (chopped or shredded)
- Green onions (spring onions, chopped)
- Cooked veggies (mushrooms, zucchini/courgette, carrots, bell peppers, chili peppers, corn kernels)
- Fresh herbs (cilantro/fresh coriander, parsley, basil, oregano)
- Spices (smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, chipotle chili powder, ground cumin)
Method
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F/180°C.
- Sandwich your shredded cheese and chosen fillings/sauces/herbs etc between your tortillas, pressing down. Make sure the top and bottom of the quesadilla are spritzed with cooking spray (this helps them crisp up but feel free to omit).
- Add the quesadilla to your air fryer basket and cook for 4 minutes.
- Flip and cook for another 4 minutes.
- Slice and serve hot.
Notes
- If your quesadillas are coming apart, press down firmly with a spatula before flipping.
- Keep an eye on them. Mine too exactly 8 minutes to become golden brown and for the cheese to melt but your air fryer might be different.
