Over the years I have cooked all kinds of things wrapped in bacon in the air fryer as it does such a fine job.

But right now in the modern world, we can cook it in the air fryer and have it truly crispy in a fraction of the grill cooking time.
Up until making bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers, my all-time favourite was air fryer bacon wrapped chicken which is also AMAZING.

Air Fryer Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers For Kids
One of the main reasons I don’t eat bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers in the air fryer regularly is because of my little darlings.
You see I have Jorge who is 3 and Sofia who has just turned 5 and I have always thought that jalapenos was too spicy for them.
Jorge doesn’t care and will eat anything I give him, just like any other boy does, but it often causes him stomach cramps if it is something too hot.
So, to stop them feeling left out what you can do is get some baby sweet peppers. Red ones work well, and you can make these at the same time as your bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers.
The red will stand out and you will easily be able to see which ones are for your kids and which ones are yours.
Problem solved and you can all enjoy a delicious snack in the air fryer.

How To Air Fry Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers?

It is so easy to air fry bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers and you can have them prepped in just 4 quick minutes.
I start by creating a bacon wrapped jalapenos production line:
- I prep the jalapenos first. I slice them lengthways and remove any seeds as this is the spiciest part that I can’t handle!
- I then use a spoon to load soft cheese into my jalapenos. This will always involve Philadelphia as I love it and rarely buy a different brand of soft cheese.
- Then finally I will chop up a slice of bacon in half length ways and wrap each jalapeno in it.

It is that simple and best of all you can use whichever brand of bacon you like. If you follow Keto or any healthy lifestyle, I recommend the bacon at Butcher Box as it is very healthy and perfect for wrapping around food in the air fryer.
Or even better when you first sign up for Butcher Box you can get free bacon:
