How to Make Jalapeno Poppers
Report
I want to teach you how to make jalapeno poppers because they are such an easy appetizer for pot lucks or holiday dinners. Filled with a creamy, cheesy filling and a kick of spice!

Ingredients
- 20 Jalapeno peppers
- 4 oz cream cheese softened
- 1 cup cheddar cheese or mix
- 4 tsp sweet + spicy umami blend
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1 ½ tbsp chives chopped
- 1/3 cup bread crumbs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F and prepare two baking trays with parchment paper.
- Cut the jalapeño peppers in half length-wise. Remove the centers and seeds with a spoon. Set the jalapenos spaced out and the cavities facing up on the baking trays.
- Prepare the filling by combining softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, chives, and spices in a medium-sized bowl. Mix until combined.
- Evenly distribute the filling into the jalapeno cavities, this should be approximately 1-2 tbsp worth.
- In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs.
- One by one, flip upside-down and press the top of each jalapeño popper into the bread crumbs.
- Bake for 18 - 22 minutes until golden.
- Serve immediately with fresh chives.
Notes
- Be very careful with the raw jalapeños, be sure to wash your hands + surfaces, wearing gloves if you’d like instead!

- Replace the cheddar cheese with any of your favourite cheeses! Like harvarti, provolone, mozzarella, etc! Make sure it's something that melts nicely!!

- To make completely vegan, replace cream cheese and cheese with your favourite substitute. Add 1 tbsp of nutritional yeast along with these substitutions for a more cheesy flavour, and adjust seasonings to taste.
