Ingredients
- 6 Jalapeno peppers
- 4 ounces cream cheese 1/2 package, softened
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese grated
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 4 lices Bacon cooked and crumbled, divided
- salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Jalapeño juice can burn your skin, so you might want to wear rubber gloves when slicing the peppers.
- Cut the peppers in half lengthwise and clean out the seeds and white membrane.
- Crumble the bacon and divide it in half. Half will go in the filling, and half will go on top of the poppers.
- Cream the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and about half of the crumbled bacon in a medium bowl.
- Fill each pepper half with the cream cheese mixture.
- Put them in the air fryer basket. Keep them in a single layer, and don't overcrowd the basket. Cook in batches if you need to.
- Sprinkle them with the rest of the crumbled bacon.
- Air fry at 370 degrees F for 6-8 minutes or until they are hot and the cheese is bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before serving, so you don't burn your mouth.
Notes
- Wear rubber gloves when slicing the jalapeños to prevent your hands from burning.
- Use room-temperature cream cheese for the filling.
- Larger jalapeños are easier to stuff.
- You can make these and store them in the fridge for about 24 hours before cooking.
- Or freeze the poppers and cook them from frozen. If cooking frozen poppers, reduce the temperature to 370 degrees F and add a few minutes to the cooking time.
