Here’s a quick and easy Air Fryer Quesadilla recipe that delivers a crispy, cheesy quesadilla without much fuss:
Air Fryer Quesadilla Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a Mexican blend)
- Optional fillings:
- Cooked chicken, beef, or shrimp
- Sautéed vegetables (peppers, onions, mushrooms, etc.)
- Refried beans
- Jalapeños
- Salsa or sour cream (for serving)
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 2-3 minutes.
- Assemble the quesadilla: Lay one tortilla flat and sprinkle an even layer of shredded cheese on top. Add any optional fillings you like (chicken, beef, veggies, etc.), then sprinkle another layer of cheese over the fillings. Top with the second tortilla.
- Lightly spray both sides of the quesadilla with cooking spray or brush lightly with oil. This helps it get nice and crispy in the air fryer.
- Place the quesadilla in the air fryer basket. If your air fryer is small, you can cut the quesadilla in half to fit.
- Cook for 4-6 minutes, flipping halfway through. The quesadilla should be golden and crispy, and the cheese should be fully melted.
- Carefully remove the quesadilla from the air fryer and let it cool for a minute or two.
- Slice and serve with salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or any of your favorite toppings.
Enjoy a crispy quesadilla in no time!
