Ingredients
(Here's a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
-
12 wonton wrappers
-
Cooking spray
-
½ of a 10‑oz package frozen spinach, thawed and very well‑strained
-
1 (8‑oz) can artichoke hearts, drained and finely chopped
-
⅓ cup mayonnaise
-
¼ cup sour cream
-
2 oz cream cheese, at room temperature
-
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
Directions
-
I preheat the oven to 350°F.
-
I press a wonton wrapper into each muffin tin cup, spray them lightly with cooking spray, and bake for 5 minutes to firm them up.
-
In a bowl, I mix together the spinach, artichokes, mayonnaise, sour cream, cream cheese, Parmesan, and garlic until everything is well blended.
-
I spoon the mixture evenly into the pre-baked wonton cups.
-
Then I bake them for another 10–12 minutes, until the filling is hot and the edges of the wontons are golden and crisp.
Servings and Timing
-
Servings: 12 wonton cups
-
Prep time: 10 minutes
-
Cook time: 20 minutes
-
Total time: 30 minutes
Variations
-
I sometimes add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
-
Shredded mozzarella or cheddar can go in for extra cheesy goodness.
-
I like to stir in chopped cooked chicken if I want something more filling.
-
Mini phyllo shells work great if I’m out of wonton wrappers.
Storage/Reheating
I store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. To reheat, I place them in a 300°F oven for about 5–10 minutes until the cups are warm and crispy again. I don’t recommend microwaving because they lose their crunch.
FAQs
Can I use fresh spinach instead of frozen?
Yes, I cook it down, drain it thoroughly, and chop it before mixing. It works just as well.
Can I make these ahead of time?
I usually prep the filling and bake the wonton cups ahead, then fill and finish baking right before serving.
Can I freeze them?
I don’t freeze them because the wonton cups tend to lose their crispiness once thawed.
What kind of artichokes should I use?
I go for canned or jarred artichoke hearts packed in water. I make sure to drain and chop them well.
How do I make them in a mini muffin tin?
I either trim the wonton wrappers to fit or double them up. Then I reduce the bake time slightly so they don’t overbrown.
Conclusion
These spinach-artichoke dip wonton cups are one of my go-to appetizers. They’re crunchy, cheesy, and super easy to put together. Whether it’s game day, a holiday, or just a fun night in, I know they’ll disappear fast.
