Ever since I have returned home from Europe I have been wanting an air fryer. While abroad I would find endless ideas online and ‘pin’ them for my return. When I got back I rushed out and got my own air fryer and then my friends at Hamilton Beach sent me their fancy Air Fryer Countertop Toaster Oven and my obsession was taken to a new level! This thing cooks crispy fries in minutes and is perfect for making Air Fryer Crab Wontons to entertain your holiday guests! PLUS I’m offering up this awesome little appliance to one lucky reader in today’s giveaway!
Crab Wontons are probably one of my favorite side dishes to get when I order Chinese food. They also make an amazing appetizer and are actually pretty simple to prepare. Fresh crab can easily be found at your local grocery store and you simply mix it with cream cheese, green onions and a splash of soy sauce. These are best served with a side of sweet chili sauce!
What I love about this style of air fryer is that it also can be used as a convection oven, toaster, a way to bake and to broil. The metal basket included is perfect for air frying as it allows air to circulate around the food. You can replace your toasted over with this baby and get so much more from it!
I actually pulled this recipe from the Skinnytaste Air Fryer Cookbook, which by the way, is amazing. If you have an air fryer or plan to get one I’d pick up her book. Because it’s the holiday season I swapped out the less-fat cream cheese for regular cream cheese. You’re welcome. You can easily prepare these ahead of your party and pop them in right before your guests arrive. I do like that this recipe is loaded with more crab and less cream cheese!

And now for the recipe!
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2½ ounces lump crabmeat, picked over for shells
- 2 scallions, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 15 wonton wrappers
- 1 large egg white, beaten
- Thai sweet chili sauce for dipping
- In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, crab, scallions garlic and soy sauce and mix well to combine.
- Place a single wonton wrapper on a flat surface and spoon 1 level tablespoon of the mixture onto the center of the wrapper. Dip your fingers into a small dish of cool water and run your finger around all of the edges of the wrapper. Take one corner and fold it to the opposite corner to form a triangle. Gently press out any air and seal the edges, making sure not to lose any filling. Brush one side of the wonton with egg white and then repeat with the remaining wrappers.
- Preheat the air fryer to 340 degrees F. Preheat to 300 degrees F if you're using a toaster style air fryer.
- Working in batches, arrange a single layer of the wontons in the air fryer basket. Cook for about 8 minutes, flipping halfway through. Once crispy and golden, remove from the air fryer and repeat with the remaining wontons. Serve hot with the Thai sweet chili sauce.

We have a basket air fryer. It works well, but the basket is too small, limiting how much you can make at one time. We use it primarily for the snack foods our kids eat, like fish sticks, chicken nuggets, etc.
I don’t own an air fryer, but I’ve been wanting to get one. I’d definitely make this recipe! My son loves crab wontons and this looks so good.

Using an air fryer would be so much healthier than using oil. I would make onion rings.
I do not own one but i would like to make chicken in one.
An air fryer has been on my wishlist for a while! I think it would be fun to try some chicken wings in it. Thanks for the giveaway!

I do not own an air fryer and have never tried one, I think I would make some home made crispy chicken nuggets first.
I do not own an air fryer. Do you happen to know if anything on this oven is nonstick coated? I am looking for an air fryer that does not contain coating. Thanks,
I would make French fries.

I don’t have an air fryer…yet.
I will make a friend chicken dinner for the family the first time I use my new one.
I do not have one…but its on my Christmas wish list!!! I would love to try out french fries and have heard it makes great chocolate chip cookies (!)
I have a small air fryer, but I’d love a larger one like this to cook for the family. I’d love to try sweet potato fries in this air fryer!
I do not have an Air-Fryer. I came close to purchasing one, but was discouraged by the price in association with the actual basket size. This counter top Air-Fryer is more than ideal; it is PERFECT. I love it. The first thing I would cook would be Chicken.Thank you for the chance to win. Merry Christmas and Good Luck Everyone.

I have an airfryer. It was a gift from my MIL a few years ago. I love it but it is just toooo small, it will make one small batch of fries at a time which is not ideal.
