Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Cut each jalapeno in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes using a small spoon or knife. Set them aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Using a small spoon, fill each hollowed jalapeno half with the cream cheese mixture, packing it slightly to ensure it’s full but not overflowing.
Wrap each stuffed jalapeno half with a slice of bacon, starting at one end and spiraling around to the other. Secure the bacon in place with a toothpick if needed.
Place the prepared jalapeno poppers on the lined baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart to ensure even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and fully cooked.
Let the poppers cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm as a low-carb appetizer or snack.
