Ingredients
- 1 package frozen jalapeno poppers (approximately 12-15 pieces)
- Cooking spray, for air fryer basket
- ¼ cup ranch or blue cheese dressing, for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for crisp cooking.
- Prepare Basket: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent the poppers from sticking and to promote crispiness.
- Arrange Poppers: Place the frozen jalapeno poppers in a single layer in the basket, making sure to leave space between them for even air circulation and cooking.
- Cook: Air fry the poppers for 10-12 minutes. Shake the basket halfway through the cooking time to turn the poppers and ensure even crispiness on all sides.
- Check and Adjust: After the initial cooking time, check that the poppers are golden brown and crispy. If not, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes as needed.
- Serve: Transfer the poppers onto a serving platter and serve hot with your choice of ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
Notes
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Cooking times may vary slightly depending on the brand and model of your air fryer.
- For extra crispiness, you can lightly spray the tops of the poppers before cooking.
- These poppers are best enjoyed immediately for optimal texture and flavor.
