Air Fried Cream Cheese Wontons

Prep Time20 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Servings: 8

Equipment

  • 1 air fryer

Ingredients

  • 25 wonton wrappers
  • 8 ounces Neufchâtel cheese
  • 2 teaspoon sugar
  • 4 scallions (thinly sliced)
  • 1 well-beaten egg
  • nonstick spray or olive oil mister

Dipping Sauce

  • 2 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 2 teaspoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon Sriracha or hot chili oil (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 370 °F
  • Whisk together the dipping sauce ingredients and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, beat together 1 egg with 2 tablespoon of water. This is the "glue" that will hold the wontons together.
  • Stir together the Neufchâtel cheese, sugar and chopped scallions.
  • Drop a teaspoon-sized mound of the cheese mixture onto the center of each wonton wrapper.
  • Fold opposite corners of the wonton wrapper together to make a triangle. Next, fold the two triangle points together. Use a pastry brush to brush on some of the beaten egg; this will act as "glue" to hold the wonton together.
  • Give the wontons a good spray with nonstick spray or an olive oil mister.
  • Cook in the air fryer at 350 °F for about 10 minutes.
  • At the 10-minute mark, flip the wontons over and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes, until they reach the desired crispy-golden done-ness.
  • Serve with the dipping sauce.
