Ingredients
This delicious snack cracker really can't be easier!
- Wonton wrappers - We used ½ of a package of 3 inch square wonton wrappers.
- Olive oil - Use a good oil, it will make a difference!
- Salt and Pepper - We like fresh ground pepper and coarse salt for this recipe.
Equipment We Used
These appetizers with wonton wrappers don’t require any fancy equipment. We love using a reusable Silpat nonstick silicone baking mat to line our baking sheet pans. No silpat? Use parchment paper instead. We used a silicone pastry brush to brush a light layer of oil on the crackers.
Some Favorite Riffs
We love this base recipe - it is easy and quick - have fun with it! While we like the saltiness and the zing from the pepper on these salt and pepper wonton crackers, you can try other seasonings or dried herbs. Use vegetable oil, canola oil, coconut oil, or melted butter instead of olive oil. Add some cheddar or parmesan cheese. Cut the square wontons in rectangles, triangles, or mini squares.
Time Saver Tips
Our Misto Oil Sprayer is a big time saver! Use it to lightly coat the wonton wrappers with oil. The key is to make sure the cracker is lightly coated, not swimming in oil and not dry. Make sure to keep the canister pressurized for a more even spray across all the crackers.
Make Ahead Tips
These are great to make ahead of time and have ready to serve. Make them up to 3 days in advance and store on the counter in an airtight container.
Saving Leftovers
These rarely last long when we make them. If you are lucky enough to have any leftover wonton crisps, they will last 3-4 days in an airtight container on the counter.
NOTE: this recipe calls for half a package of 3 inch wonton wrappers. If you don’t want to make the entire package (double the recipe), the uncooked wrappers freeze great! Wrap in their package and place in an airtight container (we like our stasher bags for this) and place in the freezer for up to 9 months. They thaw quickly either on the counter or in the refrigerator.
