Ingredients
  

2 ripe peaches, sliced into thin wedges

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon honey (or more if desired)

1 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust according to heat preference)

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened to room temperature

4 large flour tortillas

1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

A pinch of salt

Optional: 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice for added brightness

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches:

    - In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches, olive oil, honey, chili powder, ground cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and a pinch of salt. If using, add the lemon juice to brighten the flavors. Gently toss the mixture until the peaches are evenly coated. Allow them to marinate for 15-20 minutes to enhance their flavor.

      Make the Cream Cheese Spread:

        - In a separate bowl, use a whisk or fork to whip the softened cream cheese until it is smooth and creamy. For a touch of sweetness, mix in a pinch of salt and an extra drizzle of honey if desired. Set this aside for later use.

          Assemble the Wraps:

            - Place a flour tortilla flat on a clean work surface. Spread roughly 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture evenly across the tortilla, leaving about an inch border around the edges for easy wrapping.

              - In the center, layer a generous amount of the marinated peaches. Top this with a sprinkle of the chopped mint leaves and 1 tablespoon of shredded mozzarella cheese for added richness and flavor.

                Wrap It Up:

                  - Fold in the sides of the tortilla towards the center, encasing the filling. Carefully roll the tortilla tightly from the bottom up to form a secure wrap. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and filling.

                    Grill (or Toast) the Wraps:

                      - Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Lightly brush the outside of each wrap with olive oil for a golden, crispy exterior.

                        - Place the wraps seam-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for approximately 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they develop a golden brown color and the cheese inside is nicely melted.

                          Serve and Enjoy:

                            - Once cooked, carefully remove the wraps from the skillet and allow them to cool for about a minute. Slice each wrap in half diagonally for an appealing presentation. These delicious wraps can be enjoyed on their own or paired with a vibrant spicy peach salsa for an extra kick.
