These are the Crispiest Baked Jalapeno Poppers! Using Panko Bread Crumbs and Prosciutto makes every bite crunch. Check out the video to see just how easy these are.
Last day of the year! I can't believe it's here already!
To send 2015 out in style, we're cooking up all of the yummiest appetizers we can think of tonight. These Jalapeno Poppers were my sister's top request for the festivities and we came up with a recipe that will knock your socks off!
I've made a lot of baked jalapeno poppers, and they are good, but my issue is that they tend to be too chewy. I think it's normally the bacon, which just doesn't get quite crispy enough in popper recipes. But if you're like me and you enjoy a really crispy, crunchy jalapeno popper, then this is the recipe.
Instead of bacon, I wrapped these jalapeno poppers with prosciutto, which tastes a lot like bacon but is thinner and gets very crispy in a short amount of time. I stuffed it with a seasoned blend of cream cheese and sharp cheddar for an oozy gooey cheesy center. And to really ensure that these jalapeno poppers would have a proper crunch like their fried counterparts, I topped them with a blend of cheesy panko bread crumbs. And voila - we have the Crispiest Baked Jalapeno Poppers!
And just so we're very clear on how easy it will be to make these Crispiest Baked Jalapeno Poppers, my sister and I whipped up a quick video here.
These are a cinch to make and will be everyone's favorite appetizer at the party tonight!
Get these crispy, cheesy poppers ready to ring in the New Year! 2016 is going to be a good one.

Yummy! Can these be frozen for later use? Either before or after baking?
somethewiser@gmail.com says
I haven't tried freezing them yet. If you froze them before baking, however, it seems like they'd be fine. Let me know if you try it! Thanks!

These look scrumptious! I really like the idea of baking them instead of frying them..... Great idea! (And your photos are fantastic!! )

Thanks Michele! These were so good baked that I don't think we'll go back to the fried ones again.
