Who would guess that beer is the secret ingredient to making our Jalapeno Cheese Bites? These spicy bite-sized potluck appetizers are sure to wake up sleepy taste buds!
What You'll Need
- 1 cup reduced-fat all-purpose baking mix
- 1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped roasted red peppers
- 1 tablespoon chopped mild jalapeno peppers (from a 12-ounce jar)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup light beer
What to Do
-
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
-
In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients except the beer; mix well. Stir in beer and let sit 5 minutes.
-
Drop by teaspoonfuls onto prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake 7 to 10 minutes, or until golden. Serve hot.
Note
-
These bites are perfect for company, so why not make up a batch or two ahead of time so you can simply rewarm them in a 200 degree F oven before serving.
- We've got lots of great appetizers on our website, so check it out! One of our all-time favorites is Almond Crusted Brie.

What can I use instead of light beer in this recipe for someone that is gluten intolerant? I know I can use gluten free flour.

I have not tried this, but one online site said that ginger ale could be used instead of a light beer. There are also non-alcoholic beers that one could try if it's the alcohol content that is of concern. Hope this helps. If you try ginger ale, I hope you'll let all of us know if it worked.

One cup of Bisquick can be substituted by a mix of one cup of flour, 1 teaspoons of baking powder, teaspoon of salt, and 1 tablespoon of oil or melted butter.What do you think?

Would you be able to use just flour? To me the Bisquick makes buns, bread, etc: just too dry.
