Bacon Wrapped Peanut Butter and Pepper Jelly Jalapeño Poppers

Ingredients
  

  • 5 medium sized jalapeño peppers
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons full fat cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons pepper jelly (+ additional ¼ cup for glaze)
  • 3-4 slices thick cut bacon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  • Slice jalapeños lengthwise and scoop out seeds
  • Mix peanut butter, cream cheese and 2 Tb pepper jelly until smooth
  • Fill each jalapeño with peanut butter mixture
  • Cut strips of bacon to wrap around each  jalapeño half, and place seam side down on a parchment paper covered sheet pan
  • Bake for 25 minutes

For the Glaze:

  • While poppers are baking, put ¼ cup of pepper jelly in a small sauce pan and meltdown on medium heat until it has a syrupy consistency.  This should only take a few minutes.
  • After 25 minutes of baking, broil poppers for 2 minutes until tops of bacon are nicely browned. Brush pepper jelly glaze on poppers right before serving.
