Ingredients

Apple Cinnamon Filling

2 Granny Smith apples, peel, core and chop into small pieces (about 4 cups)
1½ cups water
¾ cups sugar
¼ cup cornstarch
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp lemon juice

Cream Cheese Mixture

8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
⅓ cup sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla

Cinnamon Sugar Mixture

½ cup sugar
2 tablespoons cinnamon
20 wonton wrappers, might use more
2 cups vegetable oil
¼ cup powdered sugar, for dusting
Caramel sauce, for drizzle

Instructions

Apple Cinnamon Filling

In a medium saucepan, over low heat, bring water, cornstarch, sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice to a boil, stirring constantly.
Continue stirring for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens up.
Once the sauce has thickened, add chopped apples, stir and let simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Cream Cheese Mixture

In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add sugar, vanilla and lemon juice. Beat for an additional 2 minutes.
Add some cream cheese filling in the center of the wonton wrapper followed by apple cinnamon mixture.
Using your fingers, dip into water and rub water along the edges of the wrapper. This will help seal the wontons.
Fold up the edges of the wrapper, pinching them together at the top, making sure to remove as much air as possible, twist to secure, if needed.
Heat oil in a cast iron skillet or frying pan to 375°.
Place a few wonton bites at a time in the pan and fry until golden brown on both sides.
Remove from the pan and place on a plate lined with paper towels.

Cinnamon Sugar Mixture

In a small bowl, mix cinnamon and sugar together.
Roll each bite in the cinnamon sugar mixture, then sprinkle with powdered sugar, and drizzle with caramel sauce.
