What are wontons?

My mom use to make wontons with this delicious ground turkey filling when we were kids… so good! If you aren’t familiar with wontons they are a flour wrapper that you can fill with whatever filling you like…. sweet or savory the possibilities are endless. You’ll find it in the refrigerated section of your grocery store.

Ingredients

  • can of apple pie filling
  • wonton wrappers
  • oil ( I used canola)
  • small bowl with some water
  • ground cinnamon
  • sugar
  • powdered sugar

How to Make Apple Pie Wontons

  • First step is to lay out one of the wonton wrappers. I get a slightly damp paper tower and cover the rest of the wrappers until I need them (they can dry out very easily).
Wonton wrapper and apple pie filling
  • Place a teaspoon size of apple pie filling in the center of each wonton. You don’t want to much or it will ooze out of your apple pie goodie. Apple pie filling already has some great spice, but you could add more if you want or create your own homemade apple pie filling.
Putting water along edge of wonton wrapper
  • Dip your finger in the water and use your finger to brush water along the 2 edges of the wonton wrapper closest to the bottom in the photo. You are creating the ability for the wrapper to stick together as the flour with the water creates a glue like effect.
Folding over wonton wrapper
  • Fold the top corner down to the bottom corner, press lightly on the matched sides to create a seal.
Folding in wrapper
  • Get some more water on your finger and dab the bottom corner of your triangle, then bring the left corner down and press it to the bottom corner to create a seal.
Fold second side of wonton wrapper
  • Then repeat with the corner on the right side until you’re left with this shape.
  • Fill a pot with 2-3 inches of oil and heat on medium heat until you’re at 350 degrees. I’ll put a empty wonton wrapper in to test the oil. If it floats instantly with lots of bubbles and the bottom side browns within 30ish seconds you’re ready for frying.
  • Place your wontons in to the hot oil. Make sure you don’t overcrowd them. I cooked 2-3 at a time. The wontons will cook in 60-90 seconds, so keep on eye on them.
  • Once they are golden brown, remove from oil and place on a paper towel lined plate.
  • Then let the excess oil soak off for a couple minutes then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and powdered sugar (confectioner’s sugar).
  • ENJOY!!  They are best served warm!
