Who doesn't love jalapenos?. These air-fried jalapenos are not only delicious, but they are so easy to make. This air fryer jalapeno fries recipe is the perfect snack or appetizer. They are especially good when dipped into some homemade ranch dressing and served with a nice cold beer.
• 8 large or 10 medium jalapenos
• 1/4 cup flour
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup whipping cream
• 1 cup bread crumbs
• 1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• Cooking spray
• Kosher salt, to taste
➊ Cut off the stems of the jalapenos. Cut each jalapeno in half then cut each half into 3 fries. You should get 6 fries from each jalapeno. Remove and discard the seeds.
➋ In a shallow bowl or dish, put in the flour. In another shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and cream. In a third shallow bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, paprika, salt, cayenne, garlic powder, and ground pepper.
➌ Working with a few jalapeno fries at a time, cover the fries with the flour then drench the fries in the egg and cream mixture. Finally, toss the fries in the bread crumb mixture until well coated. Continue with the rest of the jalapenos.
➍ Lightly spray the bottom of the air fryer with cooking spray. Place the jalapeno fries into the air fryer making sure none of them are overlapping. You may have to cook the jalapenos in 2 or 3 batches. Lightly mist the jalapeno fries with cooking spray.
➎ Set the air fryer to 400°F, and cook for 12 minutes, shaking the jalapenos halfway through.
➏ Immediately after cooking, sprinkle the jalapenos with salt.
➐ Serve jalapeno fries with some homemade ranch dressing.
