Ingredients

6 jalapenos halved and seeded
1 tablespoons ranch dressing powder
4 ounces cream cheese softened
1/4 cup cheddar cheese shredded
1/4 cup green onion sliced finely
1 pound bacon

Instructions

1. Wash the jalapenos and cut them lengthwise, removing the seeds and membrane. Wear gloves if you have them
2. Combine the softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, ranch powder, and green onions in a bowl, until well mixed.
3. Place 1-2 tbsp of filling in each jalapeno half, then wrap it in a slice of bacon.
4. Cook them in your air fryer at 400F for about 10 minutes or until the bacon is cooked and starting to crisp. Let cool and enjoy!

Notes

Recipe Card Tips

Use a whole slice of bacon per popper half, not a partial piece, or it tends to fall off during cooking.
Choose jalapenos with uniform size for even cooking, and watch out for poblano peppers by mistake.
Remove the seeds and membrane for milder heat, or leave them in if you want these extra spicy.
