Casa M Kickstart Spice

This Kickstart Spice is a blend of their Chain Reaction spice as well as black pepper, mustard, and a few earthy, aromatic spices. Great with everything from chicken, beef, pork and lamb. A great salt replacement as well!

Do you need to use an air fryer? Can you bake them?

No, you don’t need an air fryer you can definitely bake them. It’s up to you! Preheat oven to 350°. Prebake empty wontons for about 3 minutes. After they are filled bake them about 350° 8-10 minutes, watch so they don’t burn.

Can you prep them ahead of time?

You can make up the filling and air fry or bake the wonton cups ahead of time. Immediately before guests arrive, fill the cups and bake so you can serve them hot right away.

Can you freeze them?

While you can freeze them, if you need to prep them ahead of time, I think it’s better to pre – air fry/bake the wonton cups and make the filling, then put them all together and fill and air fry/bake again before guests arrive. Cream cheese isn’t the best reheated after being the freezer, it changes the texture of the cheese.

Preheat airfryer to 325°. I use the Breville Smart Oven Air (paid link) but any air fryer will work. You can also use the oven. Bake empty wonton cups for about 3 minutes.
