Family Favorite: Wonton Poppers Recipe

I love poppers, but I’m not a big fan of the crust they use on the poppers you buy in the store, and I’ve tried making them at home. For some reason, they haven’t turned out well for me. My solution: homemade wonton poppers. Not only are they much easier to cook, they are much crispier and taste a whole lot better!

Next time you’re hosting that big get-together, bring on the tasty wonton wrapper appetizers. It’s a crowd favorite!

Recipe yields 50 wantons

Ingredients:

• 8oz Cream Cheese
• 1 cup mexi blend cheese
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese
• 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning
• 2 jalapeno peppers seeded and diced (to make them hotter 3-4 peppers)
• 1 package 50 count small Wonton wraps

Instructions:

Step 1: Mix the cream cheese, Mexi-blend cheese, mozzarella cheese, ranch and peppers into a bowl, mix well.

Step 2: Open your wonton wraps, place them on a flat surface put a tablespoon of filling in the middle of each wonton.

Step 3: Dip your finger in water and wet the edges of the wonton, fold it over in half and press the edges together.

Step 4: The water will act like glue to seal them shut.

Step 5: Fry the wontons in oil over medium- high heat. Cook them for 15-20 seconds on each side, take out of hot oil and let drain on a paper towel.  For a healthy alternative, you could try air fryer wonton poppers!

Enjoy!
