Prep the Jalapenos: Slice the jalapenos in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and white ribs.
Make the Cheese Filling: In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheese, green onions, garlic, cornstarch (if using), salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth.
Stuff the Jalapenos: Fill each jalapeno half with the cheese mixture.
Wrap with Bacon: Wrap each stuffed jalapeno with a slice of bacon. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Smoke the Poppers: Preheat your Traeger to 180°F. Smoke the poppers for 1 hour, then increase the temperature to 400°F and cook for 35-50 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the jalapenos are tender.
Make the Maple Glaze: In a small bowl, combine the maple syrup and soy sauce. Baste the tops of the poppers with the glaze during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
Serve: Serve immediately and enjoy the smoky, sweet, and spicy flavors!
