1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
12 fresh jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded
6 slices bacon, cut into halves

Steps:

  • Spread cream cheese into jalapeno pepper halves; wrap each with a piece of bacon. Secure the bacon with toothpicks to prevent unraveling while baking. Arrange wrapped jalapeno peppers onto a baking sheet with cream cheese side facing down.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.

Tips:

  • Choose medium-sized jalapenos for a consistent cooking time and easier handling.
  • Slit the jalapenos lengthwise and remove the seeds and ribs if you prefer a milder flavor. Leave them intact for a spicier kick.
  • Use high-quality bacon for the best flavor and texture. Thick-cut bacon works well, but you can also use regular bacon if that's what you have on hand.
  • Wrap the jalapenos tightly with the bacon, ensuring that the seam is underneath the jalapeno so it doesn't unravel during cooking.
  • Cook the jalapenos in a single layer in the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking.
  • Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the jalapenos are tender.
  • Serve the air-fried bacon-wrapped jalapenos immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or sriracha mayo.

Conclusion:
