A peach cobbler egg roll is a delightful dessert that combines the classic flavors of peach cobbler with the crispy texture of an egg roll wrapper. Here’s a simple recipe to make peach cobbler egg rolls:
Ingredients:
For the Peach Filling:
- 2 cups peeled and diced peaches (fresh or canned)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Egg Roll Wrappers:
- 8 egg roll wrappers (you can find these in the refrigerated section of most grocery stores)
- 1/4 cup melted butter
For Serving:
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Peach Filling:
- In a saucepan, combine the diced peaches, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and cornstarch.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and the peaches become tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the filling to cool completely.
- Assemble the Egg Rolls:
- Lay out one egg roll wrapper with one corner pointing towards you (it should resemble a diamond shape).
- Place about 2 tablespoons of the peach filling in the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner (closest to you) over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll it up tightly, sealing the edge with a bit of water to create a tight seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Cook the Egg Rolls:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) or heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep frying pan to 350°F (175°C).
- If using an air fryer, lightly brush each egg roll with melted butter and place them in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 8-10 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy, turning them halfway through.
- If deep frying, carefully place the egg rolls in the hot oil and fry until they are golden brown, turning as needed. This usually takes about 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Serve:
- Dust the peach cobbler egg rolls with powdered sugar while they’re still warm.
- Optionally, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
- Enjoy:
- Your peach cobbler egg rolls are ready to be enjoyed! They’re best served warm and crispy, so dig in while they’re fresh.
These peach cobbler egg rolls offer a unique and delicious twist on a classic dessert. The crispy outer shell complements the sweet and spiced peach filling perfectly.
