Traditional Chinese wonton wrappers are made from wheat flour, eggs and water, and can be used to wrap around any number of fillings to be cooked in soups or fried. That’s obviously a no-go for anyone eating gluten free.

TJ says,

This dough is super easy to work with!
We have found the thinner we roll the dough the better we like it for steamed or pan-fried dumplings. For crab rangoon, etc. we’re okay with the dough being a bit thicker. These are pork and chive. We also do veggie, shrimp, etc.The key is to make sure the veggies (cabbage, zucchini, etc.) are salted and *all* excess liquid is squeezed out. Same goes for tofu. Cheesecloth is your friend.

Gluten Free Wonton Wrapper Recipe

Yield: 10 gluten free wonton wrappers
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

Instructions

Whisk together flour and salt in a small bowl; in a separate bowl combine the eggs and water. Slowly stir the egg mixture into the flour with a fork and mix until a sticky dough forms.

Divide the dough in half and cover one half while working with the other.

Prepare a clean counter or pastry mat by generously flouring with more gluten free flour. Flour a rolling pin as well, then turn one half of the dough out onto the floured mat and roll gently in each direction until the dough is evenly thinned, almost so thin you can see through it.

Measure 4 ½ - 5 inch squares and cut with a pastry cutter or butter knife. Layer each square on top of each other on a plate and cover with a damp tea towel while preparing the remaining dough. Re-roll the dough scraps to create more wrappers, so that all the dough is used to make approximately 10 wonton wrappers.

Use wrappers in your recipe before they dry out, or cover and refrigerate for 3-5 days until ready to use in your recipe. They will get somewhat more fragile with refrigeration, so bring to room temperature before rolling and spritz with more water if necessary.

Makes 10 wonton wrappers; recipe is easily doubled.

  1. Can you recommend any other gluten free flour? I make gf pasta using a gf flour from Italy. Might that work? I also have almond flour, sweet rice flour, brown rice flour, King Arthur Measure for Measure, oat flour,etc. Does your flour have Xanthan gum in it? Any help you can give me would be great;u appreciated.

  2. I used this recipe and was very happy with how well the dough handled. I don’t have a rolling mat so I used parchment paper placed on the damp countertop. I made 4inch squares and filled with my own invented filling of ground pork and coleslaw mix with a few other things. I folded in half diagonally and then just fried like that. Yum!

  3. These were okay. I live in the UK so just used normal GF flour blend. The dough was initially so sticky that I added a few more tbsps of flour to bring it together. It didn’t have great elasticity, and really started to fall apart as I kept rolling it and flouring the board. That said, I did successfully stuff the gyoza, albeit with some patching. They were dense and chewy because the dough fell apart if it was rolled too thin. Very edible, don’t get me wrong, but the dough was not the high point.

    • I don’t think you can really rate the recipe when you’re using a completely different flour. Jules makes her own flour and it’s the best flour I’ve ever used. It makes all the difference!

    • Hi Diane, yes they can! I would put parchment or wax paper between them to prevent them from sticking though. Enjoy!

  4. Tried making crab Rangoon with this recipe last night. The wrappers held together just fine but even after a lengthy fry they never browned and more importantly did not get crunchy. Thinking maybe the xanthan gum is a problem, or not enough rice flour. Disappointed.

    Reply
    • Hi Nate, when you speak about the xanthan gum and rice flour, it’s making me wonder if you were making your own flour blend? Were you not using my gfJules Flour blend?

    • Hi Loretta, yes you can freeze them with some parchment or wax paper between them so they don’t stick to each other and tear. Place them in a freezer bag with the air squeezed out as best you can. Enjoy!

    • Hi Esther, I haven’t had a chance to try this recipe with an egg substitute yet, myself, but have a look at my article on egg replacements and give it a go. The dough won’t have quite the same stretch, but since my gfJules Flour does provide some stretch on its own, it will be better than working with an ordinary gluten free flour and egg replacement and hopefully will still work well enough for you!

  5. Will I be able to still make wonton wrappers without eggs? I’m asking because some gluten free cake mix does not go well when using egg substitutes.

    Thanks.

  6. Love, love your gf flour and the results are always great.
    Can the won ton wraps be made using an egg substitute and, if so, which one would you suggest.

    Reply
    • Hi Barbara, I’m so very glad to hear that!!!
      Regarding egg substitutes for this recipe … I’m not sure which to recommend. The egg provides some of the elasticity needed (my gfJules Flour provides some too), so I guess I’d look over the ones from my vegan egg substitutes article and see which you have on hand or choose a commercial egg replacer (gluten free brand).
      I hope that helps!

  7. I’ve had the pleasure of enjoying these several times. They’ve been fantastic each time. And the guests we’ve shared them with marveled at them — as great egg rolls, on their own merits (gluten free-ness aside). Simply divine. Way to go (again and again!) Jules!

  8. I’ve found this to be an excellent recipe, and works well even using a different flour mix (I’m in New Zealand).

  9. I have been gluten free for 8 years and I love baking. This is one of the worst doughs I’ve experienced… maybe I did somethin wrong … but they wouldn’t hold any filling and I couldn’t even get it in the pan …

    • Hi Sabrina, I’m guessing you weren’t using my gfJules Flour? It makes all the difference in recipes like this where you want the dough to be resilient and to stretch around things like fillings. Check it out for reviews and more information: gfJules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour. It’s totally different from any other flours you might have tried and I know you’ll find it makes great wonton wrappers!

      • are there other additives to make it resilient, because I saw a different recipe that called for expanders?

        Reply
        • Hi Karen, there’s no need to add anything when you’re using my gfJules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour. I use different modified starches in my gfJules Flour and also different ones, depending on the mix. The ones I’ve blended together in my all purpose flour work really well for any kind of dough like this one where you need stretch. Takes all the guesswork out of having to get the ingredients right when you can just rely on one flour!

          • I had to go off corn again because its highly inflammatory for me. I love your flour but it has corn so cannot use it now. I’m going to try this recipe using a different gfree flour without corn and see how it works. Wish you had one with no corn. 🙁

          • Sue, if you need to try a different flour, look to see if it has expandex in it. Ie modified tapioca starch. If not you will want to add some, it will help to give you the stretch you need in the dough.
