Jalapeno Popper Pizza Bake

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Jalapeno Popper Pizza Bake.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C), setting the stage for a delicious pizza.

2. Step 2

   In a large skillet, cook some crispy bacon over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally until it’s beautifully browned—this should take about 10 minutes.

3. Step 3

   Once it’s done, use a slotted spoon to lift the bacon out and let it drain on paper towels, but don’t toss those tasty drippings just yet; they’ll add incredible flavor to your dish.

4. Step 4

   Next, add chopped onion to the skillet with the reserved bacon drippings and sauté until the onions are soft and translucent, which should take around 5 to 7 minutes.

5. Step 5

   Then, stir in minced garlic and keep sautéing until it turns a lovely golden color, about 2 to 3 minutes.

6. Step 6

   To elevate the flavor, season this mixture with cumin, oregano, and a dash of black pepper.

7. Step 7

   Now it’s time to make it creamy! Mix in cream cheese and sour cream, stirring until everything is smooth and spreadable.

8. Step 8

   Grab your prepared pizza dough and spread this luscious cream cheese mixture evenly over the top.

9. Step 9

   Next, sprinkle a generous amount of mozzarella and Cheddar cheese, then artfully arrange the crispy bacon and jalapeño rings on top.

10. Step 10

    For a final touch, sprinkle dried parsley over the entire pizza for a pop of color and flavor.

11. Step 11

    Slide your masterpiece into the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the crust is firm and crispy, and the cheese is perfectly browned and bubbly.
