Prep: 15 min · Cook: 10 min · Yield: 5 · Method: Air Fryer

Ingredients

• 20 wrappers wonton wrappers
• 6 oz cream cheese
• 1 medium jalapeño
• 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 3 tbsp bacon bits
• 0.25 tsp garlic powder
• 0.125 tsp black pepper
• 1 spray cooking spray

Cooking instructions

1. Finely mince the jalapeño. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, cheddar, bacon bits, jalapeño, garlic powder, and black pepper until evenly combined. (about 3 min)
2. Place 1 tablespoon filling in the center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges with water, fold each wrapper into a triangle, and press firmly to seal, removing excess air. (about 8 min)
3. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F. Arrange wontons in a single layer without touching, then lightly spray the tops with cooking spray. (about 3 min) — 375°F
4. Air-fry for 8 to 10 minutes, turning halfway if needed, until the wrappers are golden brown and crisp. Cook in batches as necessary. (about 10 min) — 375°F
5. Rest the wontons for 2 minutes before serving, since the cheese filling will be very hot. (about 2 min)
