Number Of Ingredients 6

6 jalapeno peppers
4 oz cream cheese, softened
2 Tbsp shredded pepper jack cheese
6 bacon strips halved lengthwise
1/4 c brown sugar
1 Tbsp chili powder, cayenne pepper or creole seasoning your choice

Steps:

  • 1. Cut your peppers lengthwise and remove some or all of the seeds (I leave some in); set aside for now. In a small bowl add your cheeses and blend. Spoon into your pepper halves, wrap a strip of your haved bacon around the pepper and secure with toothpicks.
  • 2. Now in a shallow bowl or dish combine your brown sugar and seasoning of choice. Coat the peppers with the sugar mixture. Place them in a greased baking pan or cookie sheet lined with foil sprayed with cooking spray.
  • 3. Bake at 350° for 18 to 20 minutes or until the bacon is firm. Remove toothpics. Enjoy.

There's heat from the jalapenos, crushed red pepper, and horseradish, but don't you worry, these won't burn your mouth! The cream cheese and sweet apricot tame these down and make them the perfect savory-sweet appetizer. Plus, they are gluten-free!
