Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 16 count wonton wrappers
- 1 cup refried beans
- 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup green onions, thinly sliced
- 0.25 cup jalapeño, finely diced optional
- 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter optional, for extra crisp edges
- 0.5 cup salsa for serving
- 0.5 cup sour cream for serving
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- In a bowl, stir together refried beans, taco seasoning, green onions, and jalapeño.
- Lay 8 wonton wrappers on a board. Spread a thin layer of the bean mixture in the center of each, leaving a small border. Sprinkle cheese evenly over the beans.
- Lightly brush the edges with water. Top each with a second wrapper and press all around to seal; press with a fork for a tighter seal.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon oil to coat the pan.
- Cook wonton quesadillas in batches, 2 to 3 minutes per side, until golden and crisp and the cheese is melted. Add a small knob of butter with the oil for extra crispness if desired, adding more oil between batches as needed.
- Transfer to a rack to stay crisp. Serve warm with salsa and sour cream.
Notes
Air fryer option: Spray assembled quesadillas lightly with oil and cook at 375°F for 6 to 8 minutes, flipping halfway. To freeze, assemble and freeze in a single layer; cook from frozen over medium-low heat until hot and crisp.
