Crispy Jalapeno Poppers: Addictive Snack Alert!
These crispy jalapeno poppers feature a creamy cheese filling, seasoned to perfection, and wrapped in savory bacon for an irresistible bite.
Ingredients
- 12 medium Jalapenos (sliced in half, seeds and membranes removed, stem preserved)
- 1 cup Cream cheese (softened at room temperature)
- 1/4 cup Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 1/2 tsp Black pepper
- 1/4 tsp Garlic powder
- 24 slices Bacon
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 325°F (163°C) for 5 minutes.
- In a bowl, mix softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar, black pepper, and garlic powder until smooth.
- Generously fill each jalapeno half with the cheese mixture, about 1 tablespoon each.
- Tightly wrap one slice of bacon around each cheese-filled jalapeno half. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
- Arrange poppers in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 10-14 minutes, or until bacon is golden brown and crispy.
Notes
- For less spice, ensure all seeds and white membranes are thoroughly removed from the jalapenos.
- If bacon doesn't hold its shape, use toothpicks to secure it firmly.
