Jalapeño Bacon Cheese Crisps
It's no secret that we like cheese crisps. They're easy and fast to prepare, and add great flavour & texture to so many things! They can stand alone as an appy (with or without a topping) or add a fantastic crunch to a cheeseburger. In any case, we hope you enjoy this tasty, spicy, cheesy treat.
Ingredients
- 2 cups grated cheese (LQC’s Mt. Moriarty and/or Qualicum Spice)
- 2-3 strips bacon, cooked crispy & minced
- 1 jalapeño pepper, sliced thinly into rounds (you'll need 1 slice per cheese crisp)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350F (180C).
- Make little piles of shredded cheese on a baking sheet. Even them out so they aren't mounded in the center. The diameter is up to you - we did about 3 inches across.
- Sprinkle about 1 tsp worth of bacon bits evenly over each cheese pile. Place a slice of jalapeño in the center of each.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until evenly golden. Note: the time will vary depending on how much cheese you use, so keep an eye on them as they bake.
- Once cooled to touch, they’re ready to serve! Enjoy on their own or with your favourite dip.
