Here's how to make it

1
First, wash your jalapeños clean and make a slit lengthwise in each pepper. Then, scoop out the seeds with a small spoon or knife.

2
In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, feta, milk, and cumin until it's nice and smooth. Then, fill your jalapeño peppers with this mixture and press them closed tightly.

3
Get three plates ready: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs. Dip your filled peppers first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally in the breadcrumbs. If you want an extra crispy coating, just repeat the egg and breadcrumb steps!

4
Heat some oil in a pan; a shallow layer is fine since you can easily flip the peppers. You'll know the oil is ready when a wooden spoon starts to bubble if you dip it in briefly. Fry the peppers for about 3 to 5 minutes until they're crispy and golden brown. If you have a deep fryer or air fryer, you can totally cook them in there too! For a deep fryer, set it to 180 degrees Celsius and fry them until golden brown in 3 to 5 minutes. If you're using an air fryer, set it to 200 degrees Celsius and air fry them until golden brown in 10 to 12 minutes.
