Air Fryer, Copycat Panda Express Cream Cheese Rangoon

The first Rangoon went so viral, and my kids had so much fun making them, we looked for something to use the rest of the wonton wrappers with, and my son suggested we try to copy his favorite Rangoon, which happens to be the famous Panda Express Cream Cheese Rangoon.

 Crab Rangoons

Here today, I show you how to make the copycat recipe, step by step.

First, we laid out the wonton wrapper, on a cutting board. I always find it helpful to lay it on a solid surface.

Added a generous mixture of cream cheese, minced scallions, and some spices (see exact recipe, below)

Today we decided to fold them like envelopes, which I found out, they are so much easier to crisp up in the air fryer, and so much easier to fold. (highly recommend this way)

Place them on the air fryer tray (Vortex shown here, after many batches, so please excuse the mess)  make sure no matter,

whether you use the basket or tray make sure they aren’t crowded and generously spray with olive oil, which will help you get a nice crispy outside.

Set your time.

Finished product!! Served with a spicy sauce, found here.

Pans, I had a hard time finding pans that fit, but then one day, I ran around this amazing, which even includes a muffin tin, talk about a score!
