KETO JALAPENO POPPER BITES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
• For the outer dough layer: combine the mozzarella cheese with the cream cheese in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave for 30-second intervals until the cheeses are melted and combine easily. Then, add in the almond flour, baking powder, and egg. Stir until well combined.
• Divide the dough into 20 equal portions. About 1.5 tablespoons per portion.
• With wet hands, flatten a piece of dough, then place about 1 tsp of cream cheese, some of the diced jalapenos, and some of the bacon crumbles into the center of the dough. Gently wrap the dough around the filling and pinch the open ends together to seal. Place the pinched together side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough pieces.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the dough is cooked through and golden brown. Serve immediately or read the post above for storage/freezing instructions.

• Place a spoonful of the filling in each pepper slice.
• Wrap half a slice of bacon around each popper and secure with toothpicks.

AIR FRYER JALAPENO POPPERS CHEESE BALLS RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the cream cheese, jalapeños, cheddar cheese, pepper jack cheese, diced jalapenos, bacon bits, garlic, salt, and sriracha sauce. Until all ingredients are well combined.
• Scoop the mixture and form it into 1 inch or larger size balls. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 30 minutes.
• Place beaten egg in a medium bowl.
• In the second bowl, combine the panko bread crumbs, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and salt.
• Remove cheese balls from the freezer. Dip one ball at a time into the beaten eggs, and then coat with the bread crumbs mixture (see picture)
• Arrange the jalapeño balls in the air fryer basket/sheet/tray and give them some space so they do not touch each other.
• Pre-heat air fryer at 400F/200C for 2 minutes and place the basket/tray into the air fryer
• Air fry mode 400F/200C for 7-8 minutes or until the breading is crispy, golden brown and the cheese starts to pop.
• It is important to flip each ball halfway thru the cooking. Cook 3-4 minutes per side.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer.
• To reheat, place in the air fryer at 350F/180C for 1-2 minutes per side.

AIR FRYER JALAPEñO POPPERS

Steps:

• Working with disposable rubber gloves to protect your skin, halve each jalapeño lengthwise, slicing through the stem. Remove the seeds and white ribs with a spoon or small melon baller. Arrange the halves on a baking sheet rounded sides down. If any of the halves tilt sideways instead of standing straight up, slice a sliver of skin off the rounded side, making sure not to cut through to the cavity, so they sit level.
• Add the cream cheese and Cheddar to a small bowl and mix together with a rubber spatula until combined. Stir together the breadcrumbs and potato chips in a medium bowl.
• Divide the cream cheese mixture among the jalapeño halves, smoothing it down with your finger or the back of a butter knife so the filling is level with the top of the jalapeno, not mounded. (You may have extra filling depending on how large your jalapenos are.) Firmly press the breadcrumb mixture over the cream cheese to fully coat. Spray the breadcrumbs with nonstick spray.
• Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F and set to cook for 4 minutes. Arrange the poppers in a single layer in the basket so they're not touching, working in batches if necessary. Air fry the poppers without opening the basket to check on them. When the air fryer turns off, let the poppers sit in the basket for another 4 minutes without opening the machine. (this will allow the poppers to cool slightly and the cheese to set so it doesn't slide out-don't worry, it'll still be gooey.)
• Carefully open the air fryer basket and remove each popper with a spatula. Serve the poppers sprinkled with the bacon.
