Air fryer jalapeño poppers are filled with a rich cream cheese mixture, seasoned perfectly, and topped with crunchy tortilla chips. Ready in just 6 minutes per batch, they’re a healthier, high-quality alternative to deep-frying.
Prepare the peppers by cutting them in half and removing the seeds from the membranes.
Combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, green onions, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a medium bowl. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the mixture into each pepper.
Preheat the air fryer. I used Cosori 5.8 quart. Arrange the stuffed peppers in an air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 6 to 7 minutes.
While the peppers are frying, place the tortilla chips in a zip-lock bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
Right after the jalapeno is cooked sprinkle the tortilla chips on top of each pepper. Serve with scallions and/or Ranch Dressing.
