Making Jalapeño Popper Pizza is a straightforward process. Follow these easy steps to create your own delicious pizza:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Prepare the Pizza Crust: If using a store-bought crust, roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness. If making from scratch, prepare your dough according to your recipe.
3. Mix the Cream Cheese: In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well blended.
4. Spread the Cream Cheese Mixture: Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over the prepared pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
5. Add the Cheeses: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly over the cream cheese layer.
6. Top with Bacon and Jalapeños: Evenly distribute the crumbled bacon and sliced jalapeños on top of the cheese.
7. Drizzle with Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle olive oil over the entire pizza for added flavor and moisture.
8. Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
9. Cool: Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for about 5-10 minutes.
10. Garnish and Serve: Optionally, sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro before slicing.
