To make this delicious appetizer, slice up your favorite peppers so that they're about 1½ to 2 inches across and open-faced, then remove the seeds before stuffing them.

Spread cream or Boursin cheese in the middle of the pepper, then pop it in the air fryer for five to 10 minutes. To really up the ante, use gourmet cheese like Brie or feta.
