Instructions
- Line your rimmed baking sheet with heavy duty aluminum foil and set the wire rack inside. Preheat your oven to 400° F (375°F on the Convection Roast setting, if you have one).
- Finely dice 3 Jalapeños, removing all seeds and membranes first.3 Jalapeños
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine 8 ounces Cream Cheese, 1 cup Cheddar Cheese (shredded), and diced Jalapeños. Microwave this mixture on the defrost setting for 45 seconds. Stir. Continue microwaving in 10 second increments and then stirring until the mixture is completely combined and easily spreadable. Transfer the cream cheese mixture to a disposable zip top bag and set it aside.8 ounces Cream Cheese, 1 cup Cheddar Cheese, 3 Jalapeños
- Lay out 16 Hot Dogs on a cutting board. Make two long, parallel slices in each hot dog from one end to the other about ¾ of an inch apart, leaving about a quarter inch unsliced at each end to help keep the filling from spilling out. (You are making a little well for the cream cheese filling.) Save the parts of the hot dogs that you carve out and set aside for a bonus recipe. (See Recipe Notes.)16 Hot Dogs
- Cut the tip off of one corner of the zip top bag, making sure the hole is big enough for the jalapeño pieces to come through. Pipe the filling into the wells you made in the hot dogs.
- Wrap each hot dog with one of the 16 slices Thin Cut Bacon. Secure with toothpicks if necessary. Set the wrapped hot dogs on the wire rack, at least 1 inch apart.16 slices Thin Cut Bacon
- Bake at 400° F for 25 minutes or until bacon is crispy. (Or use the Convection Roast setting at 375°F for 25 minutes.)
- Serve warm either on a platter with tongs to either be eaten with a fork and knife or in a keto hot dog bun or keto taco-size tortilla wrap.16 Keto Hot Dog Buns or Taco-size Keto Tortilla Wraps
Equipment
- Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil
Notes
- Jalapeño Hot Dog Poppers
- You will have some leftover filling and the pieces of hot dog that you carved out. You will likely also have some leftover jalapeños if your grocery store is like mine and they come in a bag instead of individually. Use these and any leftover filling for a bonus set of Jalapeno Hot Dog Poppers.
- Instructions:
- Chop up the hot dog pieces and add it to the leftover Jalapeño Cheddar Cream Cheese filling.
- Slice your jalapeños in half. Remove the seeds and membranes.
- Pipe the leftover filling into the jalapeño halves.
- Wrap in thin cut bacon slices.
- Bake at 400 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until bacon is crispy and you have a bonus set of Jalapeno Hot Dog Poppers. (Or use the Convection Roast setting on your oven and set it to 375°F instead.)
