Mini sweet peppers filled with jalapeno cream cheese and topped with panko bread crumbs for an easy appetizer.

Ingredients

10 mini sweet peppers
2/3 cup jalapeno cream cheese
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
1 tablespoon butter melted

Instructions

Lay the mini peppers on your preparation surface.
Slice off the front of each one, leaving a deep well and the stems intact.
Fill the remaining hole with jalapeno cream cheese for a kick of heat that's milder than traditional poppers.
Top with panko breadcrumbs moistened with melted butter and bake at 400 degrees until browned.
