Air Fryer Beef Wontons

This recipe for air fryer wontons is one of our family's favorite recipes. It's low on guilt but still crispy and satisfying. We serve these air-fried beef wontons with soy sauce for dipping.

  • Ingreadient
    • 1 pound lean ground beef
    • 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
    • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
    • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
    • 24 (4 1/2-inch square) wonton wrappers
    • 2 tablespoons sesame oil

Direction

  1. Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fill a small bowl with water.
  2. Mix ground beef, green onions, salt, garlic powder, pepper, and ginger in a bowl until well combined.
  3. Place several wonton wrappers onto a work surface. Place 1-tablespoon balls of beef mixture onto one side of each wrapper. Dip your fingertips into the water and wipe around wonton edges. Fold wontons in half to form a triangle around the filling, then wet your fingertips again and pinch the edges together to seal. Transfer to a plate, ensuring they don't overlap. Repeat to make remaining wontons.
  4. Working in batches, lightly brush as many wontons as will fit in a single layer in the air fryer basket on one side with sesame oil. Place into the air fryer basket, oiled-side down, then brush the tops lightly with additional sesame oil.
  5. Air fry in the preheated air fryer for 4 minutes, then carefully flip with tongs. Continue cooking until crispy and the edges are golden brown, 3 to 4 more minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and let cool while you cook the remaining wontons.
