Jalapeño Popper Wontons-Air Fryer Or Deep Fried
Oh my goodness! I air fried these Jalapeño Popper Wontons and I have added them to my list of my favorite Air Fryer recipes. You can use the same recipe and deep fry these, instead, if you don’t have an air fryer. They were completely crispy, the cream cheese filling was fabulous and they only took a few minutes to air fry. I used my recipe for regular Jalapeño Poppers but instead of filling the Jalapeño Peppers, I filled the wonton wrappers.
In a medium bowl add the bacon, jalapeño
peppers, parsley, onion, salt and cream cheese.
Mix well with the back of a spoon.
Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour.
Lay 4 wonton wrappers on a sheet of waxed paper.
You might want to work with 2 at a time as they dry out
really fast. Make sure you seal the package of wrappers
ever time you take a few out so they don’t dry out.
Place about a tablespoon of the filling
in the center of each wonton wrapper.
Wet the edge of the wonton wrappers
with water and your finger.
Quickly fold the wrappers into a triangle,
removing the air, then press the edges together gently.
Place them on another sheet of waxed
paper and spray both sides with cooking oil.
Preheat the air fryer (or oil) to 375 degrees.
Add 6 prepared wontons and cook for 4 minutes.
I did not turn them over,
Remove from the air fryer and serve.
If deep frying remove to a paper towel
covered plate then serve.

Ingredients
- 2 medium jalapeño peppers diced small (membrane and seeds removed unless you want them hot)
- 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 3 Tbsp. bacon cooked and diced small
- ¼ tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. dehydrated onion
- 1 tsp. dried parsley
- ¼ cup water, to seal wonton wrappers
- 20-24 wonton wrappers
Directions
- In a medium bowl add the bacon, chopped jalapeno pepper, parsley, onion, salt and cream cheese. Mix well with the back of a spoon. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour.
- Preheat air fryer (or oil if deep frying) to 375 degrees.
- Remove 4 wonton wrappers, close the package so the rest of them do not dry out. On a sheet of waxed paper, lay the 4 wonton wrappers flat.
- Working quickly, place 1 Tbsp. of cream cheese mixture in the center of each wonton wrapper.
- With water and your finger, wet all around the edges of each wonton wrapper. Fold the wonton wrapper over making a triangle and gently squeezing the edges together while removing as much air as you can.
- Place the wontons on another sheet of waxed paper and immediately spray both sides with cooking oil.
- Repeat steps 3 – 6 until all used up.
- Place wontons on the bottom of the air fryer (or in the hot oil if deep frying) so they are not touching. Air fry for 4 minutes without turning. (Deep fry until a golden brown then place on a paper towel lined plate).
- Serve immediately.

I don’t think it would be possible to combine those ingredients and the result not be delicious. Add some crispness to it in your air fryer, and it sounds like perfection.

A twist on my normal jalapeno poppers but they look and sound delicious…I keep looking at the air fryers and can’t decide but like the idea of less fat and still crispy 🙂

I don’t like to deep fry food. Not just because it’s not healthy but I seriously hate the greasy mess. If I do fry it is just a little oil in a skillet. Deep frying is out now that I have the air fryer.

The first time you do remove the seeds and membrane. Use gloves as the oil stays on your fingers. Seriously, prepared this way they weren’t hot at all.
