The Salvadoran Quesadilla is simple and easy to produce. It’s a fantastic recipe that you can learn to replicate and pass around the dinner table. Your friends are going to ask you to make it, and you’re going to keep the Salvadoran Quesadilla tradition going on.

Salvadoran cuisine is one of the most delicious foods in the food. Part of our magic is creating unique pastries. In El Salvador, we formally call cakes” pan dulce,” which literal translation is sweet bread.

You can purchase pastries from the best Salvadoran bakeries like San Martin, La Tecleña, and El Jardín del Pan. The Salvadoran Quesadilla requires only a few ingredients:

  • Two cups of pancake flour
  •  Two cups of milk
  • Two eggs
  •  One cup of sugar
  • One cup of parmesan cheese (or Queso Petacon)
  •  One 8oz stick of butter
  • ✦ Optional: One cup of yogurt
