How to make Air Fryer Jalapeno Poppers?
The first step is to slice the jalapenos into two halves. Take a small spoon and remove all the seeds and membranes. Remember not to touch the seeds with your bare hands. One time I did that, and trust me, my whole face and hand were burning after a while. Mix cream cheese, shredded cheese, and all the seasoning. Use a small spoon to fill all the jalapeno halves.
Top all the peppers with panko bread crumbs; Alternatively, you can roll them up in the panko too. Spray lightly with any cooking spray and cook in the air fryer for 6-7 minutes. That will depend on the size of the Jalapeno. Pre-heating helps in expediting the process. The end product is drool-worthy.
