Here’s a delightful recipe for Air Fryer Caramel Apple Wontons! This is a sweet and crispy treat perfect for a quick dessert or snack.
Ingredients:
- 2 large apples (Granny Smith or any tart variety), peeled, cored, and diced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice (optional)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 20 wonton wrappers
- Water (for sealing wontons)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Apple Filling:
- In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the diced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice (if using), and lemon juice.
- Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and the mixture is well combined.
- Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Assemble the Wontons:
- Place a wonton wrapper on a clean, dry surface.
- Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the apple mixture into the center of the wrapper.
- Drizzle a small amount of caramel sauce over the apple mixture.
- Moisten the edges of the wonton wrapper with water using your finger.
- Fold the wrapper in half to form a triangle, pressing the edges to seal. Ensure there are no air pockets.
- Optionally, bring the two bottom corners of the triangle together and seal with a bit more water to create a wonton shape.
- Repeat with the remaining wonton wrappers and filling.
- Air Fry the Wontons:
- Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
- Arrange the wontons in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they do not touch each other. You may need to cook them in batches.
- Air fry the wontons at 350°F (175°C) for 5-6 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Flip them halfway through the cooking time for even browning.
- Serve:
- Remove the wontons from the air fryer and let them cool slightly.
- Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
- Serve warm with additional caramel sauce for dipping.
