Instructions
Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, crab meat, green onions, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients blend together nicely.
- Lay a wonton wrapper on a clean surface and place about 1 tablespoon of the crab mixture in the center.
- Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water and fold it in half diagonally, pressing to seal. You can also crimp the edges to ensure it is well sealed.
- Repeat this process until all the filling is used.
- Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly spray each crab rangoon with cooking spray or brush with olive oil for a golden finish.
Cooking
- Place the crab rangoon in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Do not overcrowd; you want them to cook evenly.
- Cook for about 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly before serving.
