Directions

LAY peppers on work surface. Cut a slit along the side of the pepper from stem to tip, leaving the pepper whole.
STIR softened cream cheese, bacon, cheddar, cilantro, cumin and garlic powder together in a medium bowl with a rubber spatula. Scoop the filling into the pepper halves, dividing evenly. Arrange half of the peppers in the basket of the Air Fryer.
AIR FRY at 400°F until the peppers are softened, the filling is hot and the cheese is melted, about 8 minutes. Carefully remove the poppers from the basket and repeat with the remaining poppers. Let poppers cool slightly before serving.
