ingredients
4 ounces light cream cheese, room temperature
6 medium to large jalapeños, cut in half lengthwise, deseeded, with some veins left behind for a little heat
Remove all veins and seeds if you want less heat
3 large green onions, sliced
4 pieces center-cut bacon, cooked and diced
¼ cup lite finely shredded cheese
5–10 cracks of black pepper
Pinch of salt
⅓ cup seasoned panko breadcrumbs
directions
Step 1:
Prepare the jalapeños and set aside.
Step 2:
Prepare the green onions and bacon and set aside.
Step 3:
Put the room temp cream cheese, shredded cheese, green onions, cooked and diced bacon and seasonings in a bowl and mix until well incorporated. This is the filling for the jalapeño poppers.
Step 4:
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Evenly distribute the filling into each half of a jalapeño.
Step 5:
Once filled, take each half, and dip into the panko so that it sticks to the filling. Pop in the air fryer, panko side up, spray the tops with pan spray, and air fry at 400°F for 4 - 8 minutes, until the panko turns golden brown, and the inside is heated through.
Step 6:
Serve and enjoy!
