Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Pumpkin puree
- 4 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 20 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 1 piece Egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 3 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, softened cream cheese, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Lay a wonton wrapper on a clean, flat surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the pumpkin mixture into the center of the wrapper.
Brush the edges of the wonton wrapper lightly with the beaten egg to help seal. Fold the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle, pressing firmly along the edges to seal.
Repeat with the remaining wonton wrappers and pumpkin filling until all are assembled.
In a deep pot or skillet, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) over medium heat. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature if possible.
Carefully place a few wontons at a time into the hot oil without overcrowding. Fry for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried wontons from the oil and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Before serving, dust the wontons lightly with powdered sugar for a touch of sweetness and garnish.
Serve warm, optionally with a side of whipped cream or caramel dipping sauce.
