Keto Jalapeno Cheese Poppers | Low carb | Super Easy to Make.!
I love Jalapeno Cheese Poppers they are crispy, cheesy, spicy and just damn tasty. Now that I am doing Keto diet and cheese is a staple, I decided to make my own version of Keto Jalapeno Cheese Poppers. This is how I do it, they do not look like traditional cheese poppers but oh boy.! do they taste delicious 👌🤤
I used Pickled Jalapenos as they are easy to handle, no need to clean up the seeds and all that hassle. But you can use fresh ones too.! Fresh Jalapenos will be more hot than pickled Jalapenos, so definitely de seed them if you cannot handle the hotness.
I also don’t use extra cheese in the middle of the poppers but you can definitely add some cheese if you like extra cheesy poppers. I also have a video showing how to do these Keto Jalapeno Cheese poppers, just scroll down or click here.
You can add any seasonings in the dough, I used Trader joe’s Onion seasoning and Everything but the bagel seasoning. If you don’t have these seasonings then you can use onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, pepper etc. Basically you can use any seasonings/spices you prefer.
