Description
Bacon Jalapeño Popper Eggrolls are a crunchy delight filled with cheese, bacon, and jalapeños, perfect for snacks or appetizers.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package eggroll wrappers
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped cooked bacon
- 2 – 3 jalapeños, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for frying)
Instructions
- Take the eggroll wrappers and lay them flat on a clean surface, ensuring they are oriented like a diamond.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, chopped cooked bacon, finely chopped jalapeños, ranch seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
- Use a spoon or spatula to mix all the ingredients together until they are well combined and smooth.
- Take a spoonful of the filling mixture and place it in the center of each eggroll wrapper.
- Be careful not to overfill, as it can make rolling difficult.
- Fold the bottom point of the wrapper up over the filling, covering it.
- Next, fold in the left and right sides of the wrapper towards the center, making a tight seal on the sides.
- Roll the eggroll from the bottom point up towards the top, ensuring that the filling is securely enclosed and the wrapper is tightly rolled.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it is hot but not smoking.
- Carefully place each eggroll into the hot oil, one at a time, making sure not to crowd the pan.
- Fry the eggrolls for about 3 to 4 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
- Once the eggrolls are done, remove them from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Allow the eggrolls to cool slightly before serving.
- Serve the bacon jalapeño popper eggrolls with your favorite dipping sauce, like ranch or creamy jalapeño dip, if desired.
Notes
- Ensure the oil is heated properly before frying to achieve crispy eggrolls.
- You can adjust the number of jalapeños based on your spice preference.
- Experiment with different dipping sauces for serving.
