Apple Brie Quesadillas Recipes

APPLE AND BRIE QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Toss the apple slices with 2 teaspoons olive oil and cook, turning occasionally, until marked and tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Lay the tortillas on a cutting board. Top each with one-quarter each of the grilled apple and brie on one side, then fold the tortillas in half to cover the filling.
• Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook the quesadillas until golden brown and the cheese melts, about 2 minutes per side. Meanwhile, mix the mustard and maple syrup in a bowl. Slice each quesadilla into wedges. Drizzle with the maple-mustard syrup and top with the bacon.

BRIE AND APPLE PANINI

Steps:

• Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil to the pan along with the shallots and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often, until soft and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the apples and stir to coat in the oil. Add the lemon zest, juice and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir well to coat the apples in all the flavors. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples begin to brown and are cooked through, about 8 minutes. Stir in the basil and set aside to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, lay the ciabatta halves out so they are open-faced. Scoop out some of the inside of the bread and discard. Divide the Brie evenly among the halves, about 3 slices per half, tearing them as needed to cover the bread. Divide the apple mixture on the bottom halves of each sandwich (approximately 1/4 cup per sandwich). Place the tops on the sandwiches and press slightly to close.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet along with 2 sandwiches. Place a lid smaller than the skillet on top of the sandwiches and press down gently. Cook until golden brown on the first side, about 3 minutes. Flip the sandwiches and repeat on the second side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the remaining oil and sandwiches. (Alternatively, you can use a panini press.) Serve warm.

GRILLED APPLE AND BRIE QUESADILLA WITH STRAWBERRY APPLE DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat grill pan over medium heat. Spray pan with nonstick spray when ready to start cooking.
• Spread the cream cheese evenly over 4 of the tortillas. Evenly divide Brie strips on top of the cream cheese. Divide apple slices on top of Brie. Place remaining tortillas on top to make 4 quesadillas.
• Place each quesadilla on grill pan and grill 3 minutes per side or until tortilla is browned with grill marks. Use spatula to flip tortilla. Once grilled, remove from heat and let cool for about 2 minutes before slicing.
• Cut each quesadilla into 6 pieces and serve warm. Serve with dipping sauce.
• For Sauce:
• Combine all ingredients in a bowl and microwaves for 1 to 2 minutes until hot.

APPLE CINNAMON BRIE QUESADILLAS

• Cook quesadilla until bottom tortilla is browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Spread the remaining 3/4 teaspoon butter on top tortilla; carefully flip quesadilla and cook until bottom tortilla is browned and cheese is melted, 3 to 5 more minutes. Slice quesadilla into quarters.
