Ingredients
- 12 whole Fresh jalapeno peppers
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 12 slices Bacon slices
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
Wash the jalapeno peppers thoroughly and slice them in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scrape out the seeds and membranes. Set the halved jalapenos aside.
Step 3
In a small mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese until well blended.
Step 4
Using a spoon or piping bag, fill each jalapeno half with the cream cheese mixture, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Step 5
Wrap one slice of bacon around each stuffed jalapeno half, starting at one end and spiraling it to the other. Secure the bacon with a toothpick if needed.
Step 6
Place the prepared jalapeno poppers onto the lined baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each one.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the cheese is bubbly.
Step 8
Remove the jalapeno poppers from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
