Girl, let me tell you about this absolutely divine keto-friendly midnight snack that’ll make you forget all about those carb-loaded munchies! I stumbled upon this recipe during one of my late-night cravings, and honey, it’s been a game-changer ever since.
Say hello to my Crispy Bacon-Wrapped Cream Cheese Jalapeño Poppers! 🔥 Trust me, these bad boys are so good, you’ll want to make extra because they disappear faster than your ex’s text messages.
What you’ll need (makes 12 poppers):
– 6 fresh jalapeños
– 8 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 12 slices of bacon
– 1 tsp garlic powder
– 1/2 tsp onion powder
– A pinch of salt and pepper
– Optional: ranch dressing for dipping
Okay queens, let’s get cooking! 👑
1. Cut those jalapeños in half lengthwise and remove the seeds (unless you’re feeling extra spicy tonight!)
2. In a bowl, mix the cream cheese, shredded cheddar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
3. Stuff each jalapeño half with this heavenly mixture (don’t be shy with it!)
4. Wrap each stuffed pepper with bacon. Make sure it’s secure – nobody likes a loose wrap!
5. Air fry at 375°F for 12-15 minutes, or bake at 400°F for 20-25 minutes until the bacon is crispy.
Y’all, these poppers are seriously addictive! Each bite is like a flavor explosion in your mouth – creamy, spicy, and wrapped in crispy bacon goodness. Plus, they’re totally keto-friendly with only 1g net carbs per popper!
