"There is something deeply comforting about jalapeño poppers–and spicy food in general—that keeps me gravitating towards them. The subtle tingle as you sink your teeth into the crispy bacon and the chunk of gooey melted cheese hidden inside; followed by a burning sensation that slowly works its way through your mouth until it’s fully engulfed in flames. Jalapeño poppers are just plain awesome and a surefire crowd pleaser. Whip them up for Super Bowl Sunday, your birthday, or any day at all."

Step 1/2
- 2 jalapeños
- 16⅔ g cheddar cheese
- 2 slices bacon
- knife

Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F. Slice the jalapeños in half lengthwise and carefully remove the seeds and membranes using a small spoon. Fill the hollow halves generously with shredded cheese.
Step 2/2
- parchment paper
- baking sheet
Wrap each stuffed jalapeño tightly with a slice of bacon, ensuring the cheese is well-covered. Place the poppers seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for approx. 30 min. until the bacon is crispy and the jalapeños are tender.
