If you need a simple and delicious appetizer then look no further than these Vegan Baked Jalapeno Poppers – a guaranteed crowd pleaser!
Jalapenos are kinda the best thing ever.
I pretty much put them on everything.
The spicier, the better, from my point of view. And now, you can enjoy jalapeno poppers without any dairy, and at home. Yes, the world just got that much better. I know the list of my favorite jalapeno recipes has increased by 1!
The key to all of the delicious flavors in this recipe come from the filling of course. Vegan cream cheese is mixed with a chipotle pepper, red onion, cilantro and a few seasonings to give these little guys a zingy flavor and creamy texture. Before going in the oven they are topped off with bread crumbs for a nice crunch. After these bake for 25 minutes you can top them off with some more cilantro and vegan ranch. Because ranch only makes things better.
*My favorite vegan ranch is from Hampton Creek. I get mine at Target, but you can find it online here.
