Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Jalapeno peppers
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 0.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 can Refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 piece Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Slice the jalapeno peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes. Set them aside.
In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and salt until well combined.
Fill each jalapeno half with the cream cheese mixture, smoothing it out with a spoon.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Cut each triangle into smaller strips, wide enough to wrap around each filled jalapeno half.
Wrap one strip of dough around each stuffed jalapeno half, leaving a bit of the filling exposed, if desired.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the egg wash lightly over the dough for a golden, glossy finish.
Place the wrapped jalapeno poppers on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.
Bake in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
