Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Spray 4 of the tortillas with cooking spray (or brush with olive oil). Lay the oiled tortillas on a large cutting board oiled-side down. Brush with the mustard and sprinkle with about half of the cheese. Top each evenly with a thin layer of ham, onions and some pepper, and then finish with the remaining cheese.
- Brush the apple butter evenly on the remaining tortillas. Place one apple-butter tortilla on top of a ham-and-cheese tortilla (filling sides in), and firmly press the tortillas together to make a quesadilla.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lay a quesadilla oiled-side down in the pan and cook until golden brown and the cheese starts to melt, about 2 minutes. Spray the top of the quesadilla with cooking spray, turn and cook until the other side browns and the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
- Cut the quesadillas into 4 wedges and arrange on plates. Toss the apples with lemon and juice and cinnamon to taste. Serve with the apple slices.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your quesadillas will taste. Look for fresh, flavorful cheese, ham, and tortillas.
- Don't overcrowd the quesadillas. If you try to fit too much filling into your quesadillas, they'll be difficult to fold and cook evenly.
- Cook the quesadillas over medium heat. This will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Flip the quesadillas frequently. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Serve the quesadillas immediately. They're best when they're hot and fresh.
