Frequently Asked Cooking Questions

→ What type of apple filling works best?

Go for chunky apple pie filling so you get good texture and sweetness that blends well with caramel and spices.

Paint the edges of the wonton wrappers with beaten egg and press the sides tight to seal them properly.

→ Can I freeze the wontons before cooking?

Definitely! Lay them out in a single layer on a tray to freeze, then put them into a bag. You can air fry them frozen but add a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

→ What is the ideal air frying temperature and time?

Cook at 350°F (175°C) for 6 to 8 minutes, flipping the wontons halfway through so they get evenly crispy.

Yes, adding a bit of ginger or cloves gives a nice warm twist that goes well with caramel and apple.
