Ingredients

Filling

  • 1/2 lb (225 g) ground Italian sausage
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed), finely chopped
  • 4 oz (115 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Assembly

  • 24–30 square wonton wrappers
  • 1 egg, beaten (for sealing)
  • Olive oil spray or light brushing of oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling:
    Cook the Italian sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat. Add garlic and chopped spinach,
    cooking until the spinach wilts. Let cool slightly, then mix in cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, Italian seasoning,
    and sun-dried tomatoes.
  2. Assemble the Wontons:
    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each wonton wrapper.
    Brush the edges with beaten egg, fold into triangles or small purses, and seal firmly. Lightly spray or brush with oil.
  3. Bake:
    Arrange wontons on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes until crisp and golden.
  4. Serve:
    Enjoy warm with marinara, garlic aioli, or ranch dipping sauce.

Description

These Baked Sausage & Cheese Mini Wontons are crispy on the outside and irresistibly creamy and savory on the inside.
The sausage adds richness, the spinach brings freshness, and the sun-dried tomatoes offer a bright, tangy pop of flavor.
Their elegant look and bold flavor make them perfect for entertaining or snacking any time.

Tips

  • Make Ahead: Assemble and refrigerate up to 24 hours before baking.
  • Freezer-Friendly: Freeze uncooked wontons and bake from frozen, adding 2–3 minutes.
  • Extra Crispiness: Brush with oil instead of spraying for deeper golden color.
  • Add Heat: Stir in crushed red pepper flakes for spice.
  • Cheese Swaps: Try provolone, cheddar, or Monterey Jack.

Correction

If your wontons come out soggy, drain spinach well after cooking and avoid overfilling. Make sure the baking sheet isn’t
overcrowded so hot air can circulate properly.

Enjoy

Serve these warm and watch them disappear! With creamy cheese, savory sausage, and vibrant sun-dried tomatoes wrapped inside
a crisp wonton, every bite is irresistible. Perfect for parties, gatherings, or simple snack cravings—enjoy!
