I love apple pie…I mean, really…who doesn’t? If you love apple pie, then I’m confident you will LOVE these Apple Pie Stuffed Won Tons! All the yumminess of apple pie, in a bite-sized crispy treat! 
Late last summer I went apple-picking for the very first time. I had apples coming out my ears after doing so but was ecstatic to fill my freezer with apples and also make dehydrated apple chips!
Later I was able to bake pies as gifts for friends and experiment a little with some new recipe ideas I had. Apple pie stuffed won tons were another fun experiment that I tried, and we now LOVE them!

Apples, Apples and Apples!
This recipe is one of the ideas I had, using some of the amazing apples I picked (which were Gravenstein apples, by the way). I’d never even heard of or tried Gravenstein apples before, but I’m not kidding, they were the best baking apples ever (similar to Granny Smith).
I can hardly wait to go again this year and pick a bunch more! Now I’m counting the days until the farm opens again for apple-picking!
See? Here I am with the apples I just picked at a local U-Pick Orchard. It is a very full box, and I’ve got BIG plans for all of these Gravenstein apples!
I’ve used them to make Dutch Crumb Apple Pie, Apple Butter, Apple Crumb Muffins, Mom’s Apple Cake, and Mini Apple Crisps, to name a few yummy dishes.
Are Apple Pie Stuffed Won Tons Difficult To Make?
The recipe is fairly straight forward and simple. Won tons are lightly “stuffed” with a fresh apple pie type-mixture, then fried quickly in hot oil, dusted with powdered sugar and garnished.
Here they are, hot out of the skillet, and lightly dusted with powdered sugar. Now the apple pie stuffed won tons are about to get “prettied up”!
Garnish Apple Pie Stuffed Won Tons And Serve
Anyway… this is a really delicious and easy recipe (it sounds harder than it really is). The dessert also looks very appealing when you “pretty the apple pie stuffed won tons up”.
You can do this with some caramel sauce and a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and a fresh sprig of mint! YUM… they are so good!
FYI – Here’s an important tip, just so you know… they are best if you serve them warm, right after cooking. If you try to save them for another day, they lose a lot of their crispiness.
Your family or dinner guests will love this dessert. It is simple in nature but looks fabulous on the plate! I’m confident you will enjoy this sweet treat. Hope you will give it a try!
Thank you for stopping by, and I invite you to come back again soon for more family-friendly recipes. Take care, may God bless you, and have a wonderful day.

↓↓ PRINTABLE RECIPE BELOW ↓↓
- 3 green apples (Gravenstein, Granny Smith), peeled and finely chopped
- 2 Tablespoons water
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 12 WonTon wrappers (found in most grocery stores)
- 2 cups Vegetable oil (enough to cover bottom of non-stick skillet with 1 inch of oil - about 2 cups)
- 2 Tablespoons powdered sugar (sifted, for garnish)
- Caramel Sauce (optional, but great served with the wontons)
- Vanilla ice cream (optional, but great served on the side)
- Mint sprigs (optional, but makes finished dessert look "pretty")
- To Make Filling: Put the chopped apples, water, cinnamon, sugar and butter in a medium saucepan. Cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the apples have become soft, and the mixture is thick and bubbly. (this usually takes about 5-6 minutes). Remove from heat and let mixture cool.
- To assemble and cook WonTons: Remove a WonTon from wrapper carefully. Place on flat work surface, with corner point facing you (diamond shaped). Place approx. one Tablespoon of apple mixture into the center of the WonTon. Be sure to keep the edges of the WonTon wrapper free of apple filling, so the edges will seal.
- Using a pastry brush (or your fingers), lightly brush the edges of the WonTon with water (the water helps the edges to adhere to each other), pull half of the WonTon over the apple pie filling, and lightly crimp edges together (with the tines of a fork) to seal. Important! Make sure the edges are sealed... or the filling will spill out when you cook them!
- Heat oil to 375 degrees in a non-stick or electric skillet. When oil has reached temperature, carefully (HOT OIL!) place 3 or 4 WonTons at a time into the skillet. Fry for about a minute, or until the WonTon is golden brown, the carefully flip to the other side and cook until golden brown. When done, remove them to paper towels. Repeat process with remaining WonTons.
- Sift powdered sugar lightly over tops of warm WonTons.
- To serve finished WonTons: Drizzle caramel sauce onto individual serving plates. Place 3 WonTons on top of the caramel sauce. Garnish with a sprig of mint, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
