BAKED CREAM CHEESE JALAPENO POPPERS
After a number of unsatisfactory attempts at making deep-fried poppers, I modified a recipe by Emeril that is much easier than frying and everyone in our family agrees that these are at least as good as -- if not better than -- any fried poppers they have had! We love hot peppers and always make a lot of these from the ones we grow in our garden every year.

First, no eggs, no milk, no flour, and only 1/4 cup of bread crumbs.

Tips for Making the Best Baked Jalapeno Poppers:
- Choose the right jalapenos: Look for firm, plump jalapenos with smooth skin. Avoid any with blemishes or bruises.
- Wear gloves when handling jalapenos: The capsaicin in jalapenos can cause skin irritation, so it's important to wear gloves when cutting and handling them.
- Remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapenos: This will help to reduce the heat of the poppers.
- Use a variety of fillings: There are endless possibilities when it comes to fillings for jalapeno poppers. Some popular options include cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, and sausage.
- Don't overstuff the jalapenos: You want the filling to be able to melt and spread without making the poppers too messy.
- Bake the poppers until they are golden brown and bubbly: This will ensure that they are cooked through and the filling is melted.
- Serve the poppers hot: Baked jalapeno poppers are best served hot out of the oven. You can garnish them with chopped cilantro, sour cream, or salsa.
Conclusion:
Baked jalapeno poppers are a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover jalapenos. With a little creativity, you can make jalapeno poppers that are sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack or appetizer, give baked jalapeno poppers a try.
