Ingredients
8ounceslump crab meat
8ouncescream cheesesoftened
1tablespoonmayonnaise
1scalliondiced
½teaspoongarlic powder
1teaspoonWorcestershire sauce
½teaspoonkosher salt
¼teaspoonfresh cracked black pepper
12ouncepackage wonton wrappers(you might have some left over)
Instructions
Drain the crab meat and check for shell fragments; set aside.
In a medium bowl add the cream cheese and mix together with the mayonnaise, scallion, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Gently fold in the crab.
Moisten the edges of the wonton wrapper with a touch of water, then place about 2½ teaspoons of the crab filling in the center. Bring the two flat sides of the wrapper together to form four points (as seen in the photos.) Try to seal the wrapper around the filling - if a little bit of the filling comes up in the center of the wonton, that is okay.
Spray the basket of the air fryer with cooking spray. Place as many wontons as you can into the basket without touching. Spray the wontons generously with cooking spray.
Air fry for 6 minutes at 380 degrees F until golden brown and crispy.
All air fryers are different.I suggest doing a test run with just a few crab rangoon and then adjust the time/temp, if necessary. Air fryers are all similar, but just like ovens, cooking times can vary.Bake them in the oven instead. Don't have an air fryer? No Problem. Place them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Spray with cooking spray or brush well with vegetable oil. Bake at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until golden.
