Ingredients
12 wonton wrappers
4 oz cream cheese, softened
3 oz imitation crab, finely shredded
1 tbsp green onions, finely minced
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp soy sauce
Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded imitation crab, minced green onions, garlic powder, and soy sauce until well incorporated.
Place one teaspoon of the crab mixture into the center of each wonton wrapper.
Lightly brush the edges of the wrapper with water, then fold the four corners toward the center and pinch tightly to seal.
Preheat your air fryer to 375 degrees Fahrenheit for three minutes.
Lightly spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray.
Arrange the crab rangoons in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch.
Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
Notes
Ensure the filling is well-sealed to prevent leaking during the air frying process. If you have extra wonton wrappers, keep them covered with a damp towel to prevent them from drying out while assembling. For extra crispiness, lightly spray the tops of the assembled rangoons with oil before cooking.
