Instructions

1

Scramble the eggs

Melt half the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt, pour into the pan, and scramble gently until just set. Remove and set aside.

2

Assemble the quesadilla

Lay one tortilla flat, sprinkle half the cheese over one half of the tortilla, add the scrambled eggs, then top with remaining cheese and fold the tortilla over.

3

Cook until crispy

Melt remaining butter in the same pan over medium heat. Place the folded quesadilla in the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden and crispy and the cheese is fully melted.
