Air Fryer Cream Cheese Stuffed Mini Peppers

 Ingredients

• 1 bag mini sweet peppers (14 peppers) cut lengthwise and seeded
• 2 teaspoons avocado oil
• 1 (8-oz) package cream cheese
• 2/3 cup mozzarella cheese, grated
• 2 stalks green onion, finely chopped
• ½ tsp garlic powder*
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon sriracha, optional

Instructions

• Add the ingredients for the cream cheese filling to a mixing bowl and stir well until combined. If you have an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer, either one will come in handy here.
• Slice the tops off of the peppers and cut them in half lengthwise. Remove any seeds that are present.
• Drizzle avocado oil over the peppers and use your hands to toss them together until everything is coated with a bit of oil.
• Stuff the peppers with the cream cheese filling. Transfer 6 or so of them to the air fryer (in a single layer). Press the Bake setting (not the Air Fry setting) and adjust the temperature for 360 and set the time for 8 minutes.
• Allow the peppers to bake then carefully remove them from the air fryer and transfer to a plate. Repeat for the remaining peppers.
