Carolanne MariaIngredients
- 1/2 package Wonton wrappers
- 1 block Cream cheese
- 1 package Imitation crab
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp Red pepper flakes
Instructions
- 1Preheat your air fryer to 350°
- 2In a bowl, mix softened cream cheese with chopped up imitation crab. Add in the garlic powder and red pepper flakes. Stir until well combined.
- 3Place about a tsp of filling on a wonton wrapper, wet around the whole border with water, and bring up the edges to seal the rangoon. Pinch tightly to make sure it’s sealed well, otherwise the filling will explode out during the cooking process.
- 4Place the crab rangoons in the air fryer for about 10 minutes or until the wonton wrapper is golden brown and crispy. Don’t over cook or the filling will eventually spill out.
- 5Serve with sweet chili sauce, sweet and sour sauce, or chili crisp oil and enjoy!

Open in Pepper →A Package Of Wonton Wrappers Goes Far
One package of wonton wrappers sits in the fridge and turns into appetizers, dinner, or dessert depending on what you have on hand. They fry up crisp in a few minutes and hold just about any filling you can stir together.
Cooks on Pepper reach for these when company is coming, when the game is on, or when supper needs to feel like a treat without a long grocery list.
Every recipe here starts with those wrappers, from 5 Ingredient Air Fried Crab Rangoon and Jalapeno Poppers Wonton Cups to Copycat Applebee's Chicken Wonton Tacos, Easy Sausage Cream Cheese Wontons, Crispy fried Wonton shrimp, and Deep-Fried Strawberry Cheesecake Wonton Bites.
Quick Tips
- 1
Seal with water
Dip a finger in water and run it along two edges before folding. Press out the air so the wontons don't pop open in the oil.
- 2
Keep oil at 350
Fry in 2 inches of oil held at 350°F and cook 2 to 3 minutes, turning once, until deep golden.
- 3
Soften the cream cheese
Let the block sit out 30 minutes before mixing so the filling stirs smooth and spreads without tearing the wrappers.
- 4
Cover the stack
Wonton wrappers dry out fast, so keep the stack under a damp paper towel and work with 6 at a time.
