Crispy Wonton Apple Pie Bites (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and finely chopped.
02 -
½ cup granulated sugar.
03 -
1 tablespoon cornstarch.
04 -
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
05 -
1 tablespoon lemon juice.
06 -
1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
07 -
24 wonton wrappers.
08 -
Vegetable oil for frying.
09 -
¼ cup powdered sugar.
10 -
Caramel sauce for drizzling.
# Instructions:
01 -
In a medium bowl, combine the chopped apples, granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir until the apples are evenly coated. Set aside.
02 -
Lay out the wonton wrappers on a flat surface. Place about 1 tablespoon of the apple mixture in the center of each wrapper. Fold each wrapper diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Moisten the edges with water if necessary.
03 -
In a large frying pan, heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Test the oil by dropping a small piece of wonton wrapper in—if it sizzles, the oil is ready.
04 -
Fry the wonton bites in small batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
05 -
Once slightly cooled, dust the wonton bites with powdered sugar. Drizzle with caramel sauce before serving.
