Description

Crispy and flavorful Air Fryer Cream Cheese Wontons are a delightful appetizer or snack, made with creamy seasoned cream cheese wrapped in wonton wrappers and perfectly cooked to golden brown in the air fryer. These easy-to-make wontons combine the richness of cream cheese with a hint of garlic and herbs, creating a delicious finger food perfect for parties or simple cravings.

Ingredients

Wonton Wrappers

  • 16 wonton wrappers

Filling

  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ⅛ tsp onion powder
  • ⅛ tsp parsley flakes

For Cooking

  • Olive oil spray

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a small bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with garlic powder, onion powder, and parsley flakes until evenly mixed and fragrant.
  2. Prepare wonton wrappers: Lay six wonton wrappers flat on a piece of parchment paper. Moisten the outside edges of each wrapper with water to help seal them.
  3. Fill and fold wontons: Place about one teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each wrapper. Fold the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle over the filling, pressing to remove any trapped air and seal the edges. Then, bring the two opposite corners of the triangle over the center, using a little water to secure them in place.
  4. Repeat the process: Continue filling and folding the remaining wonton wrappers in the same manner until all are prepared.
  5. Air fry wontons: Place the wontons in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, positioning the folded points face down. Lightly spray both sides of the wontons with olive oil. Air fry at 350°F for 4 minutes. Then, spray the tops again with olive oil, flip the wontons, and air fry for an additional 4 to 6 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Notes

  • Be sure to moisten the edges of the wonton wrappers well so they seal properly.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
  • If you don’t have an air fryer, you can bake them in an oven at 375°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • Serve the wontons warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili or soy sauce.
