Jalapeño Popper Pizza is a delicious combination of spicy jalapeños and creamy cheese on a crispy crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 23 fresh jalapeños, sliced (adjust based on heat preference)
  • 1/4 cup diced green onions
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: cooked bacon bits, additional cheese, or a drizzle of ranch dressing

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
  2. If using a store-bought crust, roll it out according to package instructions. If making homemade dough, prepare it as desired.
  3. In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  4. Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over the pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
  5. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the cream cheese layer, distributing evenly.
  6. Arrange the sliced jalapeños on top of the cheese, adjusting the quantity to your heat preference.
  7. Lightly drizzle olive oil over the pizza for added flavor and moisture.
  8. Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
  9. Once out of the oven, sprinkle diced green onions over the top for a fresh touch.
  10. Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing. This will help the cheese set slightly, making it easier to cut.

Notes

  • Adjust the number of jalapeños based on your heat preference.
  • Feel free to add your favorite toppings.
