Air Fryer Jalapeño Poppers
These jalapeño poppers are the ultimate party food! Made with fresh peppers, a rich and creamy cheesy filling, crispy bacon bits, and a crunchy panko breadcrumb topping… this appetizer recipe is made easily in the air fryer (oven directions too)!
There are some versions of jalapeño poppers that are coated and deep fried, but the version I love the most is the one I’m sharing here today.
You still get the crunch from the buttery panko topping, and by using the air fryer you get plenty of great texture, without all the extra fat and oil from the traditional fried method.
Ingredients:
- 6 fresh jalapeño peppers
- 4 oz cream cheese softened to room temperature
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 Tbsp crumbled bacon bits
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
