Ingredients

For the Filling
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened, 1/3 fat
  • 2 tsp rice vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp Greek yogurt or light sour cream
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ c crab meat minced
For the Rangoon
  • 20 small (3 inch) wonton wrappers Make your own or find them in the cold case in your grocery’s produce section

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 425F.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together all filling ingredients until smooth.
  3. Spoon 1 Tbsp of filling just off center of each of the wonton wrappers. Using your finger or a small brush, moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water. Fold the wrapper over and press the edges together to seal in the filling.
  4. Place filled crab rangoon on a greased baking sheet.
  5. Give the un-baked crab rangoon a spritz with some cooking spray, or brush them lightly with oil.
  6. Bake the crab rangoon for 15-17 minutes, until golden brown.
  7. Let the crab rangoon cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. (The filling gets quite hot.)
  8. Enjoy plain or with some Healthy Sweet and Sour Sauce.

Notes

  • To Freeze For Later: Place filled (unbaked) crab rangoon on a parchment lined baking sheet. Freeze them on the baking sheet for 2 hours, until firm. Then, remove the frozen crab rangoon from the baking sheet and place them in a seal-able container or bag. Return them to the freezer until you are ready to serve them. (They will last up to 2 months in the freezer.)
  • To Bake From Frozen: Place the frozen crab rangoon on a baking sheet in a preheated, 450F oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden. (Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. The filling will be hot!)
