Vegan Jalapeño Poppers

Holy jalapeño's batman! Jalapeño poppers that is. Vegan jalapeño poppers. These babies are sooooo delicious and super simple to make in a snap.

Grab your ingredients:

10 jalapeño peppers cut in half lengthwise

Enough vegan cream cheese to fill the pepper halves. You can use regular cream cheese if you wish

Vegan cheddar shreds - I used Daiya

Panko bread crumbs

Vegan non dairy milk or regular milk if you prefer

All purpose flour for dredging

Start by cutting your jalapeño's lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes. The easiest method I've found is scraping the pepper halves with a spoon.

Once you have removed the seeds start the filling. Mix the vegan cream cheese with the vegan cheddar shreds and load the mixture into the grooves in the pepper halves. Fill them shallow or load those suckers up its up to you.

Next preheat your oven to 375 degrees and set up an assembly line. Mine goes something like milk, flour, then panko, then baking sheet. Now the breading process is almost the same, the only difference is the procedure goes milk, flour, milk, panko, pan. Get a nice thick coating of panko on the peppers and pop those poppers in the oven for 30-40 minutes turning once halfway through.

These peppers will be great as a snack, or a hit at a party. The best thing is these poppers are loaded with flavor, are vegan, and because the are baked not fried they are lower in calories!

 

So next time your heading to a party, think about bringing the heat with these great little treats.
