They can be stuffed with any of my numerous suggestions below from sweet to savory filled wrappers to make the best appetizer or dessert that take only a few minutes!

Premade wrappers are perfect anytime but of course, you can also try my homemade wonton wrapper recipe when you have the time.


Just scroll through this post and you will see some of my combinations for filling are and think about what kind of mini hot pockets you would like.


These can be filled and folded in triangles, squares, rolls, or any shape you prefer, I have even cut out the wrappers with a cookie cutter into heart shapes for Valentine's Day appetizers.


Canned or fresh fruits, pie fillings, and Nutella make a great filling for dessert wontons.

Cooking These Wontons

• Here are some easy cooking methods to try: 
• AIR FRY: spray the dessert or savory-filled wonton with cooking spray on the outside and then spray the basket.  Preheat the fryer to 350 degrees, place the filled wonton in the basket. Air Fry them until golden around 6 minutes
• BAKE: place them on parchment paper and bake them until crispy around 12 minutes at 400 degrees
• Pan-Fry:  heat some butter and saute until golden brown.

It can't get any easier than that and in minutes with store-bought or freshly made fillings, you can have a dessert in no time on your tables!

Dessert or Savory Wonton Recipes

This is a recipe for a Nutella filled wonton wrapper for dessert or Shrimp and Crab filled wontons for a savory appetizer.Check out these easy recipes

Prep time: 5 MinCook time: 8 MinTotal time: 13 Min

Ingredients

• 1 cup of frozen raspberries, strawberries, or blackberries
• 2 teaspoons honey or brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 6 tablespoons Nutella
• 6 tablespoons cream cheese softened
• 6 egg roll wrappers
• 1 egg mixed with 1 teaspoon of water
• Whipped cream or powdered sugar for garnish
• Fresh raspberries for garnish or powdered sugar
• Cooking Oil Spray
• For Homemade Wonton Wrappers:
• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons water
• Place flour into a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg, salt, and water. Create a well in the center of the flour and pour in the wet ingredients. Mix everything together with the paddle from an industrial electric mixer, until the mixture begins to come together.
• Knead for 3-5 minutes.
• Cover the dough with a damp towel and let rest for 1 hour. Divide the dough in half.
• Cover one-half of the dough with your towel.
• Add some cornstarch on a cutting board (or whatever you use to roll the dough out on) to roll out your dough.
• Roll half of the dough as thin as you can, forming a rectangle roughly 20”x10”.
• Cut the sheet into your desired shapes. Usually, store-bought is 5 to 7-inch squares and are perfect for egg rolls.
• I use 3-inch squares or circles for wontons or dumplings and desserts.
• Repeat with the remaining dough. Use the wonton wrappers immediately or freeze.
• For a Seafood Shrimp Rangoon scroll to the end of the card.

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

3. In a small cup add the cornstarch and some water to make a thin drizzle and add that into the hot berries and cook until thickened around 3 minutes.
4. On a cutting board, place a wrapper on the board, fill it with a little Nutella, and top the Nutella with softened cream cheese.
