Ingredients
Jalapeno Poppers:
¼ Cup Crofter’s Organic Premium Seedless Raspberry Fruit Spread
10-12 Jalapenos (Sliced in Half)
1 Cup Softened Cream Cheese
½ Cup Fresh Raspberries
1 Tbsp Fresh Chives (Chopped)
20-24 Slices of Bacon
Raspberry Dip:
½ Cup Crofter’s Organic Premium Seedless Raspberry Fruit Spread
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
Directions
- Preheat the oven or grill to 350°F. Slice the jalapenos in half-length wise and remove the seeds and ribs. The more you remove, the less hot the jalapeno will be.
- In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, fresh raspberries, chives, and ¼ cup Crofter’s Organic Premium Seedless Raspberry Fruit Spread using a hand mixer. Next, fill the jalapenos with the raspberry cream cheese and then wrap each jalapeno tightly with bacon. Use a skewer to hold bacon in place if needed.
- Bake/Grill the poppers for 30-35 minutes or until the bacon is full cooked and the peppers have gone soft. Careful flipping the peppers as you don’t want the filling to come out.
- While poppers are cooking prepare the raspberry dip. Combine all of the raspberry dip ingredients in a small bowl and whisk well. Set aside.
- Once poppers are done, remove from the heat and place on a serving dish. Serve hot with a side of raspberry dipping sauce.
