The Bell Pepper Cream is ideal for dressing pasta or spreading on crostini, and cooking the peppers in an air fryer saves a lot of time. You can also use grilled peppers left over from the day before or use peppers previously cooked in a skillet; the recipe remains the same.
Obviously, if you don’t have an air fryer, you can cook this dish in the oven; at the end of the recipe, you’ll find the cooking methods. If you are considering buying one, I recommend mine; you’ll find the link in the recommended tools!

How to prepare Air fryer Bell Pepper Cream
After washing the bell peppers, place them whole in the air fryer basket and cook for 20 minutes at 374°F, turning them halfway through.
Once the time is up, remove them and let them cool slightly, peel off the skin, remove the stem, and empty the seeds.
Put the chopped peppers, grated cheese, and ricotta in the immersion blender cup.
Blend everything until you get a cream, adjust the salt and mix well. Pour the bell pepper cream into a bowl and store in the fridge until ready to use.
