Ingredients
Scale
- 24 wonton wrappers
- 4 oz (115 g) cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup blueberry pie filling (or fresh blueberries with 1 tbsp sugar)
- 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp melted butter (or non-stick cooking spray)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
- Honey or chocolate sauce (optional, for drizzling)
Instructions
- Prepare Filling: Whisk cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until silky smooth, eliminating any lumps for a luxurious texture.
- Assemble Wontons: Position wonton wrappers, centered with cream cheese mixture, then crown each with a blueberry pie filling dollop.
- Seal Parcels: Brush wrapper edges with beaten egg, fold into triangular shapes, meticulously pinching to prevent filling escape, creating approximately two dozen delicate morsels.
- Preheat Air Fryer: Calibrate device to 180C, allowing several minutes for thorough warming.
- Prepare for Cooking: Lightly spray wontons with cooking spray or brush with melted butter, ensuring a crisp, golden exterior.
- Cook Wontons: Arrange in air fryer basket with strategic spacing, circulating hot air for 5-7 minutes and shaking midway to promote even browning.
- Finish and Serve: Dust with powdered sugar, optionally drizzle with honey or chocolate sauce, and accompany with vanilla ice cream for an indulgent presentation.
Notes
- Seal Edges Perfectly: Ensure wonton edges are tightly pinched to prevent filling from leaking during air frying, using egg wash as a crucial binding agent for secure closure.
- Prevent Sticking Technique: Lightly spray or brush air fryer basket with oil to stop wontons from adhering, guaranteeing easy removal and maintaining delicate wrapper integrity.
- Manage Portion Control: Use precisely measured cream cheese and blueberry filling to avoid overstuffing, which can cause wontons to burst or become soggy during cooking.
- Temperature Precision: Monitor air fryer heat closely, as variations can dramatically affect crispiness; aim for consistent 180C and rotate basket midway for uniform golden-brown coloration.
