Bakedjalapenopoppers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Fill each jalapeno pepper half with cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, and bread crumbs, respectively, and arrange peppers on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until jalapenos are tender and cheese melts, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Using your food processor, combine cream cheese, cheese, cumin (if using) and cayenne until well mixed.
• In a separate bowl combine eggs, milk and 2 teaspoons of the Essence (or to taste).
• In another dish, mix together the breadcrumbs and 4 teaspoons of the Essence (or to taste).
• Using gloves, fill each pepper with about a tablespoon of filling depending on the size of the pepper. I find filling all the peppers first before moving on to the next step works best for me.
• Dip each filled pepper into the flour, then into the egg mixture and finally into the breadcrumbs.
• At this point the peppers can be frozen on cookie sheets. Just pop into the oven frozen when you need them.
• Cook at 350°F for 30 minutes on a greased pan. Easy release foil or parchment paper works well too.
• To cut down on the heat when eating, serve with sour cream.

Steps:

• Wear plastic gloves, wash off outside of jalapenos, cut off tops, slice in half lengthwise, deseed, and cut out the white membrane the best you can.
• Mix together the cream cheese, ranch salad dressing, and cheese.
• Fill peppers with salad mixture.
• Wrap each pepper in bacon.
• Set on rack so that later the popper is out of the dripping bacon grease, put rack on plate, and refrigerate for 3 hours or freeze for 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Set rack inside a cookie sheet that has edges to catch the drippings.
• Bake about 30 minutes, or until bacon is done.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350ºF. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
• In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese and mayonnaise; mix well and set aside.
• Halve jalapenos lengthwise and remove seeds (wear gloves if possible). Stuff jalapeno halves with cream cheese mixture.
• Place egg substitute in a shallow dish. Place Panko bread crumbs in a separate shallow dish.
• Dip stuffed jalapeno halves into egg substitute and then roll in bread crumbs to coat.
• Transfer jalapenos to prepared baking sheet and coat with cooking spray.
• Bake until filling is bubbly, about 30 minutes. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet and set aside.
• In a bowl, cream together the cream cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, cumin, and cayenne.
• In a small bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, and 2 teaspoons of the Essence. In a shallow dish, combine the panko crumbs and remaining 4 teaspoons of Essence. In a third dish, combine the flour and remaining 2 teaspoons of Essence. Spread 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture into the middle of each jalapeno half. One at a time, dredge in the flour, dip into the egg mixture, then dredge in the panko crumbs, pressing to coat. If necessary, repeat the process. Place the coated peppers, cut side up, on the prepared baking sheet and bake until the filling is runny and the crust is golden, about 30 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and serve immediately with cold beer.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.

Steps:

• Cut jalapenos in half and remove seeds and veins.
• (Use gloves to work with peppers).
• Fill jalpenos with cream cheese and wrap a slice of bacon around each one.
• Secure with a toothpick.
• Bake at 425 degrees until bacon appears to be done, about 15-20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine cream cheese and Cheddar cheese in a bowl and season filling with salt and pepper. Spoon filling into jalapeno halves.
• Roll out crescent dough on a lightly floured surface and cut into thin strips using a pizza cutter or a small knife. Wrap stuffed jalapenos with dough strips, leaving a small space unwrapped where the eyes will go.
• Combine egg and milk in a bowl. Add flour to another bowl and season with salt and pepper. Dip stuffed jalapenos first in the egg mixture, then roll in the flour. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until dough is lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from baking sheet and stick candy eyeballs in melted cheese.

Steps:

• Remember to wear some disposable gloves when working with jalapeno peppers-- and don't touch your face!
• If you don't have any plastic gloves, I have slipped my hands into baggies to protect them from the oils that can really burn and sting for hours.
• In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, and pepper jack cheese.
• In a pot of barely simmering water, blanch the pepper halves for 2 minutes, drain and dry thoroughly.
• Spoon mixture into the jalapeno pepper halves.
• Put the milk and flour into two separate small bowls.
• Dip the stuffed jalapenos first into the milk then into the flour, making sure they are well coated with each.
• Allow the coated jalapenos to dry for about 10 minutes.
• Dip the jalapenos in milk again and roll them through the breadcrumbs.
• Allow them to dry, then repeat to ensure the entire surface of the jalapeno is coated.
• In a medium skillet, heat the oil to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C).
• Deep fry the coated jalapenos 2 to 3 minutes each, until golden brown.
• Remove and let drain on a paper towel.
