Caramelized Peach and Brie Quesadillas with Honey

This is supposed to be an appetizer but one of these days I think I'm just going to eat these for dinner....they are sweet, savory and sumptuous!  The peaches, brie and onions can be prepped up to 24 hours in advance and then refrigerated, making for quick and easy assembly.  This recipe inspires me to think outside the box on quesadillas.....the fruit & cheese combinations may be endless.

Caramelized Peach & Brie Quesadillas with Honey


Ingredients:

• 12 Flour Tortillas (I like the "uncooked" from Costco, but any will work)
• 2 peaches sliced and sauteed briefly in a hot pan with chopped thyme, until slightly brown
• one small (or 1/4 of a large) Brie wheel, rind removed, and cut into very thin slices
• 1 red onion, sliced thin and sauteed in butter until caramelized
• 1/4 cup of honey

Directions:

• For the Costco "uncooked" tortillas, start by briefly heating each one on both sides, about 30 secs per side to par cook
• Place 2 tortillas on a flat surface
• Evenly distribute 1/4 of the peaches, brie and onion
• Season with salt and pepper
• Stack the tortillas on top of each other, top with a plain tortilla, pressing down firmly to secure the layers
• Repeat with remaining ingredients
• To cook, place on BBQ grill or in hot pan with very little oil
• Heat until grill marks show, flip, heat other side, and then remove from pan
• Cut each stack into 8 slices (more or less if desired) and once on serving platter, drizzle tops with honey
• Garnish with chopped thyme leaves if desired
