 Baked  Bacon  Jalapeño Popper Egg Rolls

A delicious fusion of  creamy, spicy jalapeño popper filling wrapped in crispy egg roll wrappers and baked to golden perfection. Perfect as an appetizer or snack!

Servings: 4-6

Ingredients

  • 12 egg roll wrappers

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 6 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled

  • 4 large jalapeños, seeded and finely diced

  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp onion powder

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

  • Olive oil spray (for baking)

Instructions

    1. Preheat Oven & Prep Baking Sheet

      • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

      • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

    2. Make the Filling

      • In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar, crumbled bacon, diced jalapeños, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

      • Mix well until fully combined.

    3. Assemble the Egg Rolls

      • Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape (one corner facing you).

      • Spoon about 2 tablespoons of filling onto the center.

      • Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly.

      • Dab a little water on the edges to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers.

    4. Bake to Crispy Perfection

      • Place egg rolls seam-side down on the baking sheet.

      • Lightly spray the tops with olive oil spray for extra crispiness.

      • Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy.

    5. Serve & Enjoy!

      • Let cool slightly before serving.

      • Pair with ranch dressing, sour cream, or spicy aioli for dipping.

Variations & Tips

    • Cheese Swap: Try pepper jack or smoked cheddar for extra flavor.

    • Vegetarian Option: Skip bacon and add corn, black beans, or bell peppers.

    • Spice Level: For milder rolls, remove all jalapeño seeds; for extra heat, leave some in.

    • Air Fryer Option: Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 8-10 minutes, flipping once.

    Enjoy these crispy, cheesy, and slightly spicy egg rolls as the ultimate party snack! 🥢🔥
