Ingredients:
- 1 can (approximately 1 cup) canned pumpkin
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 16 wonton wrappers
- Sugar (for sprinkling)
- Ground cinnamon (for sprinkling)
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400ΒΊF (200ΒΊC). This ensures that it’s nice and hot when you’re ready to bake your Pumpkin Pie Wontons to golden perfection.
-
Prepare Filling: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the canned pumpkin, maple syrup, brown sugar, and pumpkin pie spice. Stir until well mixed, ensuring all the flavors are evenly distributed.
-
Assemble Wontons: Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean work surface. Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of the pumpkin filling into the center of each wrapper.
-
Seal Wontons: Moisten the edges of the wonton wrappers with water using your fingertip or a small brush. Fold each wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle, enclosing the filling. Press the edges firmly to seal, ensuring there are no gaps where the filling could escape during baking.
-
Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the filled wontons onto an ungreased baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced and not touching each other. This allows them to cook evenly and become wonderfully crisp.
-
Sprinkle and Spray: Lightly coat the tops of the wontons with nonstick cooking spray. Then, sprinkle each wonton with a bit of sugar and ground cinnamon. This adds a touch of sweetness and enhances the flavor as they bake.
-
Bake to Perfection: Pop the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake the wontons until they turn a beautiful golden brown, approximately 16 minutes.
-
Turn and Bake Again: After 16 minutes, carefully turn the wontons over using tongs or a spatula to ensure even browning on both sides. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 2 minutes.
-
Cool and Serve: Once baked to perfection, remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the Pumpkin Pie Wontons to a wire rack to cool. Allow them to cool slightly before serving to avoid any burns, but don’t wait too longβthese tasty treats are best enjoyed warm!
