Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon sour cream
- ¼ cup strawberries (fresh or frozen, cut into pieces)
Wontons
- 8–12 wonton wrappers (3x3 inches)
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
Topping
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and sour cream. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended. Gently fold in the diced strawberries to maintain their texture.
- Fill the Wonton Wrappers: Lay each wonton wrapper flat on a clean surface. Spoon a small amount of the strawberry cream cheese mixture into the center of each wrapper. Lightly brush the edges of the wrapper with water to help seal them.
- Seal the Wontons: Bring the sides of the wonton wrappers together, forming small pillow-shaped squares. Press the edges firmly to ensure they are well sealed and the filling does not leak during cooking.
- Preheat and Place in Air Fryer: Lightly spray the air fryer basket to prevent sticking. Place the filled wontons inside the basket in a single layer, making sure they do not overlap or stack.
- Air Fry: Set the air fryer temperature to 350°F (175°C). Cook the wontons for 6-8 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- Finish and Serve: Carefully remove the wontons from the air fryer. Dust them lightly with powdered sugar before serving warm for a delightful dessert treat.
Notes
- Use fresh strawberries if possible for best flavor; frozen strawberries should be well-drained and patted dry to prevent soggy filling.
- Brush the wonton edges with water carefully to ensure an airtight seal, preventing filling leakage during air frying.
- If you prefer, you can substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a tangier flavor.
- Serving the wontons warm enhances the cream cheese filling’s smooth texture and the crispy wonton wrapper.
- These can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator un-fried; air fry just before serving.
