How to Make Irresistible Crispy Crab Wonton Cups
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly spray a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray, then press the wonton wrappers into each cup to form little cups.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine canned crab meat, cream cheese, chopped green onions, soy sauce, and garlic powder, stirring until smooth.
  4. Spoon the creamy crab filling into each wonton cup, ensuring they are nicely piled.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
  6. Let cool slightly, then sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and serve warm.
