Tips
Be sure to not overcrowd the crab rangoons while they’re cooking in the air fryer. There needs to be room for the air to circulate and move around.
Place the sealed crab rangoon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or wax paper while you cook them in batches. It will keep them from sticking to the counter while you wait to cook them.
FAQs
These are best when reheating them in the air fryer for a few minutes, as it brings back that crisp! A microwave is fine too but they’re not going to be as crispy.
Yes, they can. It is recommended to enjoy them within 2-3 days of being cooked. This will ensure the best taste and flavor.
Since this batch of crab rangoons is pretty big, you may find that you have some leftovers. Just store them in an airtight container in the fridge until you’re ready to eat. If you don’t plan to enjoy them in the next 2-3 days you can also freeze them in an airtight container or zippered bag for a few months.
