Ingredients
  

  • 8 sheets wonton wrappers thawed if frozen
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries hulled and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar optional, for sprinkling
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter for brushing wonton wrappers

Equipment

  • Muffin tin or cupcake pan
  • Baking sheet
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Food brush

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Use a food brush to lightly coat each wonton wrapper with melted butter. Gently press the coated wrappers into the cups of a muffin tin, forming a cup shape. Bake for 8-10 minutes until edges are golden brown and wrappers are crispy.
    1 tablespoon melted butter
  2. While the wonton cups bake, wash and hull the strawberries. Slice them thinly and place in a bowl. Optionally, sprinkle with a tablespoon of granulated sugar and gently toss to macerate, enhancing their sweetness and releasing juices.

  3. Remove the baked wonton cups from the oven once they are golden and crispy. Allow them to cool slightly on a wire rack until they are easy to handle but still warm.
  4. Gently place the cooled wonton shells on a serving platter. Fill each shell with a few slices of strawberry, arranging them neatly for an appealing presentation. Optionally, sprinkle a little extra sugar on top for added sweetness.
