Jalapeño Poppers Ingredients
Method
Jalapeño Poppers Directions
Prepare the Jalapeños
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the jalapeño peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes for less heat.
Make the Filling
In a bowl, mix together cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, bacon bits, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Stuff the Jalapeños
Spoon the cheese mixture into each jalapeño half, filling them generously.
Bake
Place the stuffed jalapeños on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Serve
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm. Enjoy your jalapeño poppers!
