SWEET PEPPER POPPERS

By TPMay

Ingredients

• 2 cups walnuts
• 1/4 cup apricot jam
• 2 roasted red peppers
• 12 pickled sweet piquante peppers
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
• kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to broil.
In the bowl of a food processor, add walnuts, apricot jam, roasted red peppers, a pinch of red pepper flakes and oil. Season with salt and pepper, and puree until smooth. Transfer filling into piping bag and pipe into each pickled pepper. Place the peppers into a baking dish and broil for 1-2 minutes, until warmed through and slightly charred.
Tip: instead of a piping bag, use a zip top and cut off a corner.
