Hot Honey Feta Wonton is a crispy and flavorful snack that combines the tangy creaminess of feta cheese with the sweet heat of hot honey, all wrapped in delicate wonton wrappers fried or baked to golden perfection. This appetizer delivers a perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory tastes, ideal for game day, parties, or a quick flavorful bite.

Ingredients

Wonton and Filling

  • Wonton Wrappers – thin sheets for wrapping the filling
  • Feta Cheese – about 1 cup, crumbled
  • Fresh Herbs (such as oregano or parsley) – 2 tablespoons, finely chopped

For Cooking

  • Oil for Frying or Baking – neutral oil like vegetable or canola oil, enough for frying or brushing for baking

Finishing

  • Hot Honey – to drizzle generously over cooked wontons

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, crumble the feta cheese and gently mix with finely chopped fresh herbs, ensuring the mixture is not too wet.
  2. Assemble the Wontons: Lay out wonton wrappers and place a small spoonful of the feta mixture in the center of each wrapper. Lightly brush the edges of the wrappers with water to help seal them.
  3. Seal and Shape: Fold wrappers diagonally to form triangles or bring corners together to create purses, pressing firmly to seal and prevent leakage during cooking.
  4. Cook the Wontons: Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and fry wontons in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Alternatively, place wontons on a baking sheet and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 10–12 minutes until crisp and golden.
  5. Drizzle with Hot Honey: Transfer cooked wontons to a serving plate and generously drizzle with hot honey for a sweet and spicy finish.

Notes

  • Brush wonton edges with water promptly to ensure perfect sealing and prevent drying out.
  • Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying to achieve crispiness without greasiness.
  • Do not overfill the wontons to avoid bursting during cooking.
  • Drain fried wontons on paper towels to keep them crisp and prevent sogginess.
  • Adjust the heat level of hot honey to your preference by selecting different brands or mixing your own with honey and chili flakes.
