Description

Delicious and easy-to-make Guacamole Cups featuring crispy baked wonton wrappers filled with fresh, creamy guacamole. Perfect as a party appetizer or a fun snack, these bite-sized cups offer a satisfying crunch combined with the rich flavors of avocado and traditional guacamole ingredients.


Ingredients

Scale

Wonton Cups

  • 24 wonton wrappers
  • Non-stick cooking spray or oil for greasing the muffin tin (optional)

Guacamole

  • 1 cup homemade or store-bought guacamole


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s hot enough for baking the wonton cups to a golden crisp.
  2. Form Cups: Lightly grease a mini muffin tin to prevent sticking. Press each wonton wrapper firmly into the muffin tin cavities, making sure the corners stay flat and don’t fold inward to maintain a cup shape.
  3. Bake Wonton Wrappers: Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes until the wonton wrappers are golden brown and crisp.
  4. Cool Cups: Remove the tin from the oven and allow the wonton cups to cool in the pan for at least 5 minutes, which helps them firm up and makes them easier to remove.
  5. Fill Cups: Scoop the guacamole into each cooled wonton cup just before serving to maintain crispiness, then serve immediately for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • You can use homemade guacamole with fresh avocados, lime, cilantro, onions, and tomatoes for a fresher taste.
  • For easier removal, allow the cups to cool completely or use a non-stick spray in the muffin tin.
  • The baking time might vary slightly depending on your oven, so keep an eye on the wonton wrappers to avoid burning.
  • These cups are best served immediately after filling to prevent the wrappers from getting soggy.
  • Variations can include adding diced tomatoes or a sprinkle of cheese on the guacamole before serving for extra flavor.
