What You’ll Need
- Wonton Wrappers: Use pre-cut, thin square wonton wrappers and keep them covered while assembling so they don’t dry out.
- Creamy Fruit Filling: Full or reduced fat cream cheese, fresh or frozen blueberries, sugar, and vanilla are mixed together to create the delicious filling.
Variations
- These air fryer blueberry cheesecake wontons are best served with a dusting of powdered sugar or cinnamon, a drizzle of chocolate, or a spoonful of warm jam.
- Swap the blueberries for diced strawberries, raspberries, or peaches.

- Mix in mini chocolate chips for a richer dessert.
How to Make Dessert Wontons
- Mix together filling ingredients (full recipe below).
- Lay out wonton wrappers. Add filling to each wrapper.
- Fold into a triangle. Bake in the air Fryer.
Make Them Foolproof
- Pat frozen berries dry to reduce extra moisture.
- Don’t overfill, just a small spoonful makes folding easier and cleaner.
- Allow the cream cheese to soften so it mixes smoothly and evenly.
- Keep wrappers covered with a damp towel while filling to prevent drying out.
- Firmly seal the wonton wrapper edges, and create a compact filling by cutting the blueberries into quarters, to help prevent leaks.
- Air fry in batches to avoid overcrowding and ensure even crispness.
- For extra crunch, sprinkle a little granulated sugar on the wrappers before frying.
- Serve immediately, as the wontons soften the longer they sit.
Storing Your Wontons
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Reheat in the air fryer at 325°F for a few minutes to restore crispness.
- Freeze unbaked wontons in a single layer, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 3 months.
- Air fry frozen wontons directly from frozen, adding 1 to 2 minutes to the cook time.

Great snack! Healthy too! Candace’s Husband
I made these blueberry cheesecake wontons…….they were a disaster. They blew apart in AF so tried in a conventional oven same thing, all the innards seeped out. Any suggestions? I have made savoury wontons before and not had a problem.
Hi K, I suggest that you make sure that you have really tightly sealed the wontons on the two edges using water. You can press them together between your fingers. Make a small slit in the top to allow steam to escape. And be sure to not overtake. Hope that helps! We love these!
