Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and shredded Cheddar cheese. Mix until thoroughly combined and smooth. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Carefully spoon or pipe the cream cheese mixture into the center of each jalapeño half, filling them generously. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Cut each turkey bacon slice in half crosswise. Wrap one bacon strip around the center of each jalapeño half, securing it snugly. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Arrange the wrapped jalapeños on a nonstick baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the bacon is cooked to a crisp and the jalapeños are slightly tender, approximately 10 to 15 minutes. (15 minutes)

07

Step

Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy the explosion of flavors!

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a dash of garlic powder or smoked paprika to the cream cheese mixture.
If you prefer a milder popper, soak the halved and seeded jalapeños in ice water for 30 minutes before filling.
To prevent the bacon from shrinking too much during baking, partially cook it in a skillet before wrapping the jalapeños.
These poppers are best served warm, but can also be enjoyed at room temperature.
Feel free to substitute regular bacon for turkey bacon if desired, but adjust cooking time accordingly.
Try using different cheese such as pepper jack or Monterey Jack for a variation in flavor.

    The turkey bacon crisped up beautifully and the jalapeños had just the right amount of heat.

  • Trudie Daugherty

    I added a little bit of hot sauce to the cream cheese mixture and it gave them the perfect amount of spice.

  • Brianne Dicki

    Next time I will double the recipe because they disappeared so quickly!
