Our Cream Cheese And Bacon Stuffed Jalapeno Poppers Are Rich, Creamy And Crazy Delicious. They Make A Perfect Game Day Or Party Snack!
Here’s an appetizer that is always a favorite. It’s great hot out of the oven or even at room temperature. The jalapenos have a fairly mild chili flavor when the ribs and seeds are removed. What’s not to love about a cream cheese and bacon filling? I mean seriously! Every time I serve these they’re a huge hit. Give them a try and be ready to give out the recipe.
Cream Cheese and Bacon Stuffed Jalapeno Poppers
Ingredients
- 10 Fresh Jalapenos Sliced in Half Lengthwise, Seeded
- 10 Ounces Cream Cheese at Room Temperature
- 7-8 Slices Bacon Cooked and Chopped
- Panko Bread Crumbs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with tin foil and coat with cooking spray.
- Cook the bacon until crisp then drain on a paper towel; chop bacon into very small pieces. Mix the bacon crumbles into the cream cheese until thoroughly combined.
- Cut jalapenos in half, lengthwise. Wear plastic gloves if possible and carefully remove seeds and vein with a spoon. Smear each jalapeño half with cream cheese and bacon mixture. Pour the panko crumbs onto a plate. Dip the stuffed jalapeño into the panko crumbs cream cheese side down.
- Bake on a pan with a rack for 20-25 minutes. If the panko crumbs aren't golden brown, turn the oven to broil and cook them, watching carefully so they don't burn, for a few minutes. Serve immediately. Enjoy.

They look crazy good. I recall when I moved to Colorado from NC that I would remove jalapeno from anything that it came served with. Now? I can eat them raw almost and love serrano even more in dishes for that 'extra' kick.
Mmm, these look delicious!! You have a lot of great recipes on your blog. I'm your newest follower 🙂

I need appetizers I can serve at room temperature. You have won me with these. thank you so much for this timely and delicious and WINNING post!!!!
You are speaking my language. I always have all of those ingredients in my kitchen. How could I not think of this before. Your posts are always right up my alley! – Gary
Jalapeno poppers are some of my very favorite treats! Definitely going to try these tasty morsels out.
Oh I love jalepeno poppers! These look way healthier than the store bought ones! I will have to try them!
I make a version of these that are stuffed with cream cheese and wrapped in bacon (the pioneer woman recipe) but the bacon can be so time consuming to wrap! This looks much simpler, yet just as delicious if not more so! Can't wait to try!
YUM- I'd love a few of these to munch on right now. I'm going to make these soon.
Would it be wrong to go to the store for ingredients right now and just not share with anyone?
Found your blog through Tastespotting. These beauties are baking in the oven as I type. Love this easy and non-fried version. Thanks! 🙂
Bacon? Did I read bacon? Lead me to it! What a marvelous appetizer. I bet the guys love it too.
The other day when you posted this recipe, I saved the link in my “recipes I want to try” folder.
I went to the grocery store yesterda and low and behold they had jalapeno peppers on sale, so I picked up 40 of them for appetizers at today's 4th of July get together.
They were a huge hit!!
I did add shredded cheddar cheese to the cream cheese and bacon mixture to bind it all together and stretch the mixture. And I forgot the panko bread crumbs…
Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for the recipe, this is a definite keeper!!
awesome! I love how you added the bacon to the stuffing instead of wrapping the popper with bacon!
What tasty little treats! Can't go wrong adding bacon!
Love this recipe! These peppers look divine! Thanks for sharing! Happy 4th!
Wonderful appetizer, my son would really like this.
I love jalapenos poppers, but hate how they're usually deep fried when you order them at a restaurant…this recipe is the perfect solution!
Hope you and yours have a wonderful Fourth!
YUM! Jalapenos and cheese are a great great combination. Definitely making these in the future!
I love jalapeño poppers, so I know I'm going to love these.
