Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 whole jalapenos
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 12 whole bacon slices
- 12 whole toothpicks
- 1 can non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat with non-stick cooking spray.
Wash and dry the jalapenos, then slice each one in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scoop out the seeds and membranes. Set the prepared jalapeno halves aside.
In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika until fully combined.
Using a spoon or piping bag, fill each jalapeno half with the cheese mixture, being careful not to overfill.
Wrap each stuffed jalapeno half with a slice of bacon, tucking the ends beneath or securing with a toothpick.
Place the bacon-wrapped jalapenos on the prepared baking sheet with the cheese-filled side facing up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the jalapenos are tender.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these delicious cheesy stuffed jalapenos with bacon as a party appetizer or snack!
