    These Oven Baked Crab Rangoons are great for appetizers and feeding a whole crowd or a party! And they are baked, so you can have as many as you like!

    So Delicious without all the fat! A perfect appetizer!

     

    Last month I attended IFBC ( International Food Bloggers Conference) here in Seattle and I enjoyed every minute of it! I made lots of friends and learned a lot. Talking about food, learning about food and thinking about food were basically the main activities of those 3 days and well, my current life. I just can't stop doing it (don't want to either). So when I meet people, food is usually the main thing I talk about. It's better than politics right?

    I met Madeline at this conference and one day she came all the way from Portland and we spent the day together exploring downtown Seattle, talking about food and eating a lot. As Madeline is a wonderful cook, and she told me she knows how to make Asian food, I asked her if she knew how to make Crab Rangoon. I love Crab Rangoon so much, all that creamy crab and cream cheese filling hiding in the crunch of wonton, that's what I'm talking about!

    And yes she knew how to make them! So she gave me the instructions and the ratios, and on the same day, I bought all the ingredients I needed which are only 4, and made some the same night! The result my friends? Unbelievably good!

     

    So Delicious without all the fat! A perfect appetizer!

    What I changed for these oven baked crab rangoon though, was the method of cooking it. Instead of frying it I decided to bake them and it's only for health reasons. They are just so delicious and if I had fried them, I would probably had only 1 or 2 to keep on the healthy side but when they are baked? Of course I'm going to have so many of them!

    I almost made these oven baked crab rangoon in the traditional form but feel free to just fold them and shape a triangle. They will still taste just as good!

    I know you got more than you needed so get them out of the fridge and let's make some Oven Baked Crab Rangoon!

      Crab rangoon is one of the best treats at Chinese restaurants! I love that you baked them instead of frying them. They look awesome!

      I love how you made a healthier baked version of this classic recipe. Back in my college days, I used to waitress at a Chinese restaurant where they made the best Crab Rangoon. Because I don't deep fry at home, I've only had them if I was eating out. Well, I no longer have any more excuses not to give these a try at home. Thanks for sharing this!

      Absolutely love crab rangoon and after not being able to find any good ones at Chinese restaurants while living in DC decided to make my own -- so much better! Have only made deep fried ones though -- need to try the baked ones : )

      I"ve only made crab rangoons once (and they were fried).. but this option looks SO delicious, and if I baked them I wouldn't feel as guilty for eating multiple! Your pictures are beautiful as well 🙂

        They are also so easy to make! I'm quite sure many supermarkets have wonton wrappers too. I know Safeway and Walmart definitely do 🙂
