1 cup raw cashews soaked
½ tsp garlic powder

¼ cup water
2 tbsp thinly sliced green onions
1 package vegan wonton wrappers (30 wrappers)

3). Drain and rinse the cashews once they’ve soaked, and place into a small blender attachment. Add all the ingredients except for the parsley and chives.
4). Blend until smooth and creamy, then mix in the sliced green onions with a spoon until incorporated.
5). Lay out wonton wrappers and scoop ½ tbsp of the filling onto each wrapper. Then wet your index finger in water and line the edges of the wonton wrapper. Then Bring the edges together in a star pattern and press them together.
6). Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake or air fry for 15 minutes or until crispy. You may lightly spray these with avocado oil spray to help them brown (This is completely optional).
This goes great with my Chinese Vegetables and Rice or my Vegan Egg Drop Soup.
OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!! Totally going to make these!!! Do you have any suggestions on how one can instead bake vs air frying? Thank you!
These are wonderful! I added a few garlic cloves and nooch to the filling…divine!
I tool the idea of airfrying wontons and ran with it. I nestled the wrapper in silicon cupcake liners and filled them with a mixture of leftovers: curried stir fried green papaya chunks, steamed kale, water chestnuts, lots of garlic, ginger and onion. I pulsed it all in the food processor to a coarse crumble and filled the liners with a heaping tablespoon of filling. Air fryer 360 degrees for 15 minutes. The tops and edges perfectly crispy…the bottoms were done, but not cripsy. If I wasn’t in such a hurry to eat them, I would have unmolded them at ten minutes and finished that last five minutes with no liner so the bottoms crispier. served with homemade sweetchili sauce, hot sweet mustard. yum!
