Ingredients
- 12 whole jalapeño peppers
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 0.5 tsp smoked paprika
- 12 slices bacon strips
- 24 pieces toothpicks
- 1 can nonstick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2
Cut each jalapeño pepper in half lengthwise and use a spoon to carefully remove the seeds and membranes. Set the halved jalapeños aside.
Step 3
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Step 4
Using a small spoon, fill each jalapeño half with the cheese mixture. Be sure to slightly mound the filling so the poppers are generously stuffed.
Step 5
Wrap each stuffed jalapeño half with one slice of bacon, starting at one end and overlapping slightly as you wrap. Secure the bacon with a toothpick at each end to keep it in place.
Step 6
Place the bacon-wrapped jalapeño poppers on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they’re spaced out to allow even cooking.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the cheese is bubbling.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the poppers cool for a few minutes before serving.
Step 9
Enjoy these flavorful treats immediately as-is or serve with your favorite dipping sauce!
