Tips and Variations

While this is an easy recipe, I do have some tips that will help you make them the best they can possibly be. They’re easy tips, but they can make a big difference. I also have some great ways to switch up these wontons, allowing you to make several different kinds while still using this single recipe.

Tips

  • Be sure you don’t overfill the wontons, or all your delicious filling will ooze out of them.
  • When sealing your wontons, be sure to press much air as possible out of them.
  • When moistening your wonton edges to seal them, don’t use too much water. You want the edges to be damp, not soaked.
  • When frying the wontons, be sure not to overcrowd the skillet so the temperature remains consistent.

Variations

  • You can air fry these wontons to avoid the mess and spatter of oil.
  • Use different berries with the filling recipe to make blueberry, blackberry, or strawberry filling.
  • Use your favorite pie filling to make even more flavors like apple, peach, and more.

How to Make Raspberry Dessert Wontons

Making these wontons is just as easy as getting your ingredients together. It only takes a few simple steps!

Step 1: Make the Raspberry Filling

Add raspberries, lemon juice, and sugar to a small saucepan. Heat the mixture over medium, stirring frequently, until a sauce begins to form. Then, mix cornstarch and water together and add it to the raspberries. Stir the mixture until thickened, then remove it from the heat and let it cool.

Heat oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add 5 to 6 wontons at a time and fry them until golden brown on all sides – about 4 to 5 minutes. Once golden brown, remove them from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Dust the wontons with powdered sugar and enjoy!
