These crispy baked cream cheese wontons feature golden flaky edges with a luscious creamy filling, baked to perfection for a healthier, mess-free snack or appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
  • About 24 wonton wrappers (square)
  • 2 tbsp green onions, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp sesame oil (optional)
  • Vegetable oil or cooking spray, for brushing
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth and well incorporated.
  3. Lay one wonton wrapper flat on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of the cream cheese mixture in the center.
  4. Lightly moisten the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold into a triangle by bringing one corner to the opposite corner and press edges to seal. Pinch or crimp edges decoratively. Repeat for all wrappers.
  5. Place wontons on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer with space between each. Lightly brush tops and edges with vegetable oil.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, rotating the tray halfway through, until edges are golden and flaky.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool on the sheet for 5 minutes or transfer to a cooling rack. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Keep cream cheese chilled but soft before assembling to avoid runny filling. Seal edges well with water to prevent leaking. Brush wontons lightly with oil for golden flaky edges. Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet for even crispiness. Rotate tray halfway through baking.
