Wonton Fruit Pies Recipe 445

Steps:

• Lay out Wonton wrappers. Mix water & cornstarch in a small bowl and set aside. Place approximately 2 tblsp of pie filling in center of Wonton. (do not overfill) Using finger, dip into cornstarch mixture & run finger around the edges of Wonton to seal. Fold in two opposite end points, then roll, like a burrito. (at this point these can be frozen on a cookie sheet, then placed in a Ziploc bag to freeze) Heat oil and fry. Drain on a paper towel then sprinkle with powdered sugar. (make a dipping sauce like caramel for the apple, etc)

Steps:

• 1. In a shallow dish, mix sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
• 2. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and the water for the egg wash.
• 3. Place one wonton wrapper on a clean, dry surface. With a small pastry brush or a spoon, paint the edges of the wonton wrapper with the egg wash. Then spoon 1 teaspoon of the pie filling in the middle. Fold over to form a triangle and seal very well. Repeat for remaining. Make sure you have a good, tight seal, otherwise the filling will leak out and cause oil splatters.
• 4. Heat oil to 375 degrees.
• 5. Carefully slide in a few wontons into the oil with a long-handled spoon. (Use a screen to protect you from the oil.)
• 6. Fry for 1 minute on each side, until golden brown. Drain on rack.
• 7. While still warm, sprinkle won ton on both sides with sugar/cinnamon mixture or powdered sugar and place back on rack to cool. (It's fun to have some of each for variety.)
• 8. Transfer to a serving tray or to individual serving dishes.
• 9. These are great served warm but are also very good at room temperature.

Steps:

• Open can of pie filling and mince fruit well.
• Place one teaspoon of filling on the center of a wonton wrapper. Place another won ton wrapper on top and seal the edges with water. Don't let any filling spill over or won ton will not seal. Press edges with a fork to ensure a tight seal and to create a decorative edge.
• Deep fry in a fryer till golden brown at 400* about 3 minutes.
• Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
• Place 1 scoop of vanilla ice cream into 4 pretty little bowls and microwave them all at the same time for 20 seconds to soften the ice cream.
• Add 4 won ton fruit crisps on top of each and serve to guests who think you are brilliant.
• If using peach or apple, dust lightly with cinnamon.
• If using pumpkin, dust lightly with nutmeg.
• If using cherry, get out of the way or the sparks from the spoon hitting the bowl will put your eyes out.
• They are good. Really.
• There will be a lot of filling left over from your can, unfortunately. A shame to waste it- but- you can always have cherry, peach, or apple pie filling with cottage cheese for a protein rich breakfast the next day. Or pour the filling over pancakes. The point is -- well there really is no point -- does there always have to be one?

Steps:

• Lay one wonton wrapper on work surface with one point towards you (diamond shape).
• Place 1 tablespoon apple pie filling in center.
• Moisten edges of wrapper on two sides closest to you.
• Fold wrapper in half, forming a triagle. Press to seal edges tightly.
• Repeat with remaining filling and wrappers.
• Heat oil in heavy skillet to 1/4-1/2 inch in depth.
• When hot, add wontons a few at a time.
• Brown on both sides and remove to paper toweling to drain.
• Sprinkle with powdered sugar and DEVOUR!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Spray mini muffin pan with cooking spray.
• Place a wonton wrapper in each muffin cup. Be careful to make sure that the edges of the wrapper do not fold back into the cup.
• Bake for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Remove from muffin pan and cool completely.
• Combine grapes and yogurt.
• (Can be prepared to this point for later assembly.).
• To assemble fruit cups, spoon some grape mixture into each wonton cup.
• Top with a mandarin orange segment.
• Garnish with mint leaves, if desired.
