Ingredients
Scale
12 large jalapeño peppers
8 ounces of Brie cheese, cut into small pieces
1 cup fresh blueberries
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: Cut the jalapeño peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes (use gloves if desired to avoid spicy residue on your hands).

Step 4: Spoon the cheese mixture into each jalapeño half, filling them generously.
Step 5: Arrange the stuffed jalapeños on the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the jalapeños are tender and the cheese is bubbly.
Step 6: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before garnishing with fresh cilantro if desired. Serve warm.
Notes
For optimal storage, keep leftover jalapeño poppers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, ensuring they stay fresh and flavorful.
When reheating, place the poppers in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes to restore their crispness and melty cheese consistency.
Serve your Blueberry Brie Jalapeño Poppers with a drizzle of additional honey or a side of tangy dipping sauce to enhance their sweet and spicy flavor profile.
For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding finely chopped fresh herbs like chives or green onions to the cheese mixture before stuffing the jalapeños.
