Dwayne is from Baltimore and is the one that introduced me to the Maryland Style Crab Cake. The best part about this recipe is that it's baked and not fried and Keto Friendly. This recipe for Oven Baked Crab Stuffed Jalapeño Poppers has it ALL going on. Blended cheese, smooth cream cheese, and crispy topping, all served up in a jalapeño. You can make them in your oven when you remove the frying, eliminating the breading. A usual breading on jalapeno poppers is breadcrumbs or even panko, Japanese breadcrumbs. If you don't want deep-fat fry them, you don't need breading.

This year I taught myself how to garden. I watched many videos on YouTube on how to start your home garden. The first thing I looked up on how to plant was Jalapeno Poppers. I'm a big fan of spice, and I use Jalapeno in many dishes. So, this was one of the first vegetables I planted, and to my surprise, I grew some beautiful and huge Jalapeno peppers. So, I picked these peppers straight from my backyard garden. I was so happy to increase my food and to be able to taste the juice and spice from my garden. So, if you ever thought about growing your vegetable, you want to learn everything better when it's fresh. Below I will show you how Dwayne makes his incredible Crab Stuff Jalapeno Poppers.
