Milk (for brushing)
Steps (6)
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare Apple Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the diced apples, sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch. Mix well to coat the apples evenly.
Fill Wontons: Place a teaspoon of the apple mixture in the center of each wonton wrapper. Lightly moisten the edges of the wrapper with water.
Seal Wontons: Fold the wrapper over the filling to form a triangle. Press the edges together to seal tightly.
Bake Wontons: Place the filled wontons on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops lightly with milk. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve: Allow the wontons to cool slightly before serving. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar for extra sweetness.
Additional tips
- Apple Choice: Use firm apples like Honey Crisp or Gala for a nice texture.
- Sealing: Ensure the wontons are sealed well to prevent the filling from leaking out during baking.
- Serving: These wontons are delicious on their own or served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- To make more: double the ingredients.
