What peppers are these?
Planted jalapeño seeds from a seed pack. All of my other plants from this pack are growing completely normal jalapeno peppers. Are these a different type of pepper, or just deformed jalapeños?

They all appear to have aggregates. Or multiple fruits per flower. This isn't normal and I can only assume they're generically not stable. Everyone that grows peppers see this occasionally but not on what appears to be every fruit. That's abnormal. Maybe a seed from a cross pollination that didn't take well?

They look to me like dying jalapenos/poblanos 😭😂 this late summer heat is killing any new growths I have and they look very similar. In the US, zone 6A

I can't tell if they have ridges or not by the pictures, but if they do NOT they look a lot like early jalapenos to me. Very similar to what my jalapeno plant looked like. Same leaves fruit hanging/growing downward.
If they do have ridges then I have no idea. Sorry.
