Servings: poppers
ingredients
- 1/4 lb shredded sharp cheddar
- 1/4 lb shredded mozzarella
- 1/4 cup finely chopped yellow onion
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup cream cheese
- 3 Tbsp sour cream
- 3 Tbsp Frank's Red Hot Sauce
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 12 large jalapeno peppers stemmed, seeded and halved
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 Tbsp melted unsalted butter
instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together cheddar, mozzarella, onion, egg, cream cheese, sour cream, hot sauce, salt, and pepper until well-combined.
- Fill each jalepeño half with the cheese mixture.
- In a small wide shallow bowl, stir together panko and melted butter until the breadcrumbs are moistened. Dip the jalapeños, cheese-filled side down, in the crumbs to coat evenly.
- Add to the air fryer in an even layer. Cook for 7 minutes at 375˚F. You will likely have to cook these in batches, depending on the size of your air fryer. Make sure to only load your air fryer with enough to be in a single layer - do not layer them on top of each other!
- Serve warm.
