Baked Cream Cheese Rangoon Recipe
Description
Baked Cream Cheese Rangoon are delicate wonton pockets filled with a soft mixture of cream cheese, minced garlic, and chopped green onions. The filling is carefully sealed in square wonton wrappers by bringing the corners together and pinching them into a star shape, ensuring the contents stay enclosed during baking. Sprayed lightly with olive oil, the rangoon crisp beautifully in the oven, providing a pleasing contrast between the creamy interior and the crisp exterior. The bake time is short, with a flip halfway for even browning.
The filling’s mild garlic and onion flavors balance the richness of the cream cheese, making the rangoon a versatile appetizer or snack. They are usually served warm alongside a dipping sauce, enhancing the overall taste experience.
For an alternative cooking method, the recipe allows for air frying at 350°F for 7 minutes, offering a convenient option for a crispy texture without baking. The egg wash around the wrapper edges helps seal the pockets and adds a subtle glaze.
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 1/2 clove garlic minced
- dash salt
- 2 green onions chopped
- 1 egg
- 24 wonton wrapper square
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, garlic, salt and onions until well mixed.
- Whisk egg until well beaten in a small bowl.
- Place one teaspoon of cream cheese mixture into the center of one wonton wrapper. Dip your finger into the beaten egg and lightly coat the outer edges.
- Bring all the corners of the wonton together up to the center and pinch. Slide your fingers on all the sides together to form an "X" or star appearance, and make sure they are sealed (or else the filling may come out). You can add more egg wash if needed. Repeat for remaining wontons.
- Lightly spray the tops and sides of the wontons with olive oil spray. Place on foil lined baking sheet on their side.
- Bake at 375 degrees F for 5 minutes and then flip to the other side and bake an additional 5 minutes.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, out of the oven.
- AIR FRYER INSTRUCTIONS: Cook at 350 for 7 minutes.
