Maple Bacon Cheeseburger Bomb Quesadillas take classic cheeseburger flavors and wrap them up in a crispy, cheesy quesadilla. Loaded with ground beef, melty cheese, smoky bacon, and a touch of maple syrup, these quesadillas are sweet, savory, and incredibly satisfying. Great for dinner, parties, or as a unique snack!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese blend)
  • 6 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (plus extra for drizzling if desired)
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 tbsp butter or oil (for cooking)
  • Optional toppings: chopped pickles, shredded lettuce, or diced tomatoes

Instructions

  • Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain any excess fat. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, then stir in the maple syrup. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Prepare Quesadillas: Lay out the tortillas. Sprinkle a layer of shredded cheese on half of each tortilla. Spoon some of the cooked beef mixture over the cheese, followed by a sprinkle of crumbled bacon. Top with a little more cheese to help the quesadilla stick together.
  • Fold and Cook: Fold each tortilla in half to enclose the filling. In a large skillet, melt a small amount of butter or oil over medium heat. Place one folded quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat with remaining quesadillas.
  • Serve: Slice each quesadilla into wedges and serve warm. Optionally, drizzle with a little extra maple syrup and add toppings like chopped pickles, shredded lettuce, or diced tomatoes for a cheeseburger-style garnish.

Notes

 

  • For a stronger maple flavor, add an extra drizzle of syrup over the beef or inside the quesadilla before folding.
  • Substitute with any cheese that melts well, like mozzarella or Monterey Jack.
  • For a crispier quesadilla, cook over medium-low heat to allow cheese to melt fully without burning.
