Garden fresh jalapenos stuffed with bacon and homemade cheeses for Jalapeno Poppers From Scratch!
Share:
Ingredients
- 5 fresh jalapeños
- 4 lices Bacon
- 1/4 cup feta cheese
- 1/4 cup cream cheese
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/8 tsp chili powder adjust to taste
- 1/8 tsp cayenne adjust to taste
- fresh ground pepper adjust to taste
Instructions
- Set oven to broil and move rack second to the top position.
- In a medium pan, fry bacon until crispy. Remove from pan and let cool on paper towel lined plate.
- Meanwhile, clean and halve jalapenos. Remove seeds with a small spoon working from bottom of jalapeno to the top.
- Crumbled bacon.
- In a medium sized bowl, mix cheese, salt, chili powder, cayenne, and pepper in a bowl. Add half of the crumbled bacon and mix well.
- Fill halved jalapenos with the cheese mixture and line on a lightly greased baking sheet. Add remaining crumbled bacon on top.
- Add to oven and broil for 4 mins. Turn pan and broil another 4 minutes until cheese is bubbly and begins to brown and jalapenos are soft. Check jalapenos after 2 minutes. If they look like they're burning, lower rack to second rack.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- To adjust the heat level of the poppers, keep just a little bit of the membrane of the popper when cleaning. This is where most of the capsaicin of the pepper is and that's what controls the heat.
- No feta? No problem. Just use all cream cheese. Add a little bit more salt to taste.
- You can also bake at 425 degrees for 10 minutes.
- Leave out the bacon for a vegetarian popper.
