Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 35 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 24 cups
Ingredients
- 1 package wonton wrappers
- 1 cup spinach, chopped
- 1 cup artichoke hearts, chopped
- 1 cup cream cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures that the wonton cups bake evenly and become crispy.
- Prepare a muffin tin by lightly greasing it with cooking spray or a small amount of olive oil. This will help prevent the wonton wrappers from sticking.
- Take the package of wonton wrappers and carefully separate them. You will need 24 wrappers for this recipe.
- Gently press each wonton wrapper into the muffin tin, forming a cup shape. Make sure the edges of the wrappers extend slightly above the rim of the tin for a nice presentation.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, chopped artichoke hearts, cream cheese, sour cream, shredded mozzarella cheese, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and creamy.
- Using a spoon, generously fill each wonton cup with the spinach and artichoke mixture. Be sure not to overfill, as the mixture may expand slightly while baking.
- Once all cups are filled, place the muffin tin in the preheated oven. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the wonton wrappers are golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- After baking, remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the wonton cups to cool for a few minutes. This will make them easier to remove from the tin.
- Carefully lift each wonton cup out of the muffin tin using a fork or small spatula. Serve warm as an appetizer or snack, and enjoy your delicious Spinach and Artichoke Wonton Cups!
Tips
- Prep Ahead: If you're short on time, you can prepare the filling a day in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Just fill the wonton cups right before baking for a fresh taste!
- Customize Your Fillings: Feel free to add other ingredients like diced bell peppers or jalapeños for an extra kick, or swap in different cheeses for a unique flavor profile.
- Watch the Baking Time: Keep an eye on the wonton cups as they bake. Ovens can vary, so check them around the 10-minute mark to ensure they don’t over-brown.
- Serving Suggestions: These wonton cups pair wonderfully with a side of marinara or ranch dressing for dipping. Consider adding a sprinkle of fresh herbs on top for an extra pop of color!
- Make It Gluten-Free: If you need a gluten-free option, look for gluten-free wonton wrappers available at many grocery stores.Enjoy your cooking adventure with these delightful Spinach and Artichoke Wonton Cups!
