Crispy air fryer wontons filled with warm cinnamon apple and caramel, finished with powdered sugar and extra caramel.
# Ingredients:
For the wontons
01 -
1 cup (240 g) apple pie filling, chopped into small pieces
02 -
1/2 cup (120 ml) thick caramel sauce, plus more for serving
03 -
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
04 -
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
05 -
24 square wonton wrappers
06 -
1 large egg, beaten with 1 teaspoon water, or water for sealing
07 -
Neutral cooking spray
08 -
2 tablespoons powdered sugar, optional
09 -
Flaky sea salt, optional
# Instructions:
01 -
Stir the chopped apple pie filling, caramel sauce, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a bowl. If the filling seems loose, chill it for 10 minutes before wrapping.
02 -
Place wonton wrappers on a clean work surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of filling into the center of each wrapper, keeping the edges clean.
03 -
Brush the edges with egg wash or water. Fold each wrapper into a triangle, press out air pockets, and pinch the edges firmly closed.
04 -
Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 3 minutes. Lightly spray both sides of the wontons with cooking spray.
05 -
Arrange the wontons in a single layer with space between them. Air fry for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crisp. Work in batches as needed.
06 -
Let the wontons cool for 3-5 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar, drizzle with extra caramel, and add a tiny pinch of flaky salt if desired.
# Good to know:
01 -
Best served warm soon after air frying.
02 -
Cook in batches so the wrappers crisp evenly.
03 -
Fresh apple filling can be used if cooked until thick and cooled before wrapping.
