Air Fryer Stuffed Pickles – A Must-Try Snack!

Crispy, Cheesy, and Full of Flavor!

These Air Fryer Stuffed Pickles are a game-changing snack! Packed with creamy cheese, savory ranch seasoning, and crispy bacon bits, they’re the perfect low-carb, keto-friendly appetizer or party bite!

Ingredients

  • • Cream cheese (softened)
  • • Ranch seasoning (1–2 tsp, to taste)
  • • Shredded cheddar cheese (about ½ cup)
  • • Real beef bacon bits (2–3 tbsp)
  • • Whole pickles (halved and hollowed out)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Pickles: Slice pickles in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scoop out the center, creating a shallow “boat.” Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

  1. Make the Filling: In a bowl, mix cream cheese, ranch seasoning, cheddar cheese, and beef bacon bits until well combined.

  1. Stuff the Pickles: Spoon or pipe the mixture into the hollowed-out pickle halves, spreading evenly.

  1. Air Fry: Place stuffed pickles in the air fryer basket. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 6–8 minutes, or until the tops are golden and slightly crispy.

  1. Serve: Let cool for a minute, then serve with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy as-is!

Optional Add-Ons

  • • Top with crushed pork rinds for extra crunch
  • • Add diced jalapeños to the filling for a spicy kick
  • • Try with flavored pickles like spicy or dill-garlic for a twist
