It's late in the evening and you're hungry. You have peanut butter, apples and tortillas--you're saved! This would probably would work well with bananas as well.

Great idea but did not work out well. I followed the directions but 4-6 minutes for each side was way too long and ended up burning. It was kind of a mess to eat. Oh and do not put honey in the filing - leave it as dipping sauce or something after it's done. The honey thinned as the quesadilla cooked and spread all over the pan. Read More

Excellent! I saw the words "Peanut Butter Fiend" and I knew this recipe was calling my name! I'm an admitted peanut butter addict and will eat just about anything with the ooey gooey nutty stuff on it. Peanut Butter and apples are a great combination in my book but sandwich the two between some tortillas and heat them up a bit to get the peanut butter a little "melty" and well....you have yourself a really nice little treat! I sprinkled a little cinnamon and a dash of nutmeg on my apples but other than that I wouldn't change a thing! Read More

I "embellshed" the quesadilla a little by shaking some cinnamon on top of the apples and drizzling the finished quesadilla with honey as suggested by one reviewer. Tortillas apples and peanut butter are ingredients I would likely always have and this is quick and easy to put together. Thanks for the good idea! Read More

Good snack!! Grandkids loved them. Next time I'm going to serve them "ELVIS STYLE" with peanut butter bacon & bananas. Maybe peanut butter & nutella chocolate or with a little marshallow creme. Use your imagination & have fun with this. Read More

I loved these! I buttered the ouside of the tortilla so it'd get crisp and golden. I didn't measure but used about 1/2 the amount of peanut butter and apple. Read More

I made it exactly how it asked but when I tried it I felt like it needed a little something more. So I threw a dip togeter using a few scoops of frozen cool whip and a spoon of apple butter..a very nice touch! The boys loved it and asked for more!! Read More
