Description
Crispy, golden egg rolls filled with juicy peaches and warm cinnamon, these peach cobbler egg rolls are a fun, easy dessert perfect for summer gatherings. They combine the nostalgic flavors of classic cobbler with the crunch of a fried treat.
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced (about 3 medium peaches; frozen or canned work too—just drain well)
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar (brown sugar can be substituted)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 10 egg roll wrappers (about 6-inch square)
- 1 large egg, beaten (for sealing the edges)
- Vegetable oil, for frying (canola or sunflower)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
- Ground cinnamon (to sprinkle, optional)
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (for serving, optional)
Instructions
- Peel and dice peaches into small cubes. If using frozen, thaw and pat dry. For canned, drain well and chop into bite-size pieces.
- In a mixing bowl, combine peaches, sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, salt, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir gently to coat.
- Optional: For a thicker filling, transfer mixture to a small saucepan and simmer over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly, until juices thicken. Let cool.
- Lay out egg roll wrappers on a clean, dry surface. Beat the egg and keep nearby.
- Spoon about 2 tablespoons of peach filling onto the center of each wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly. Brush the edge with beaten egg to seal.
- Pour 2 inches of vegetable oil into a large skillet or deep fryer. Heat to 350°F (175°C).
- Place egg rolls seam-side down into the hot oil. Fry in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown—about 2-3 minutes per batch.
- Use tongs or a slotted spoon to transfer egg rolls to a paper towel-lined plate or wire rack. Let cool for a few minutes.
- Dust with powdered sugar and sprinkle with cinnamon. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
For gluten-free, use rice paper wrappers. Keep wrappers covered with a damp towel to prevent drying. Seal edges tightly with egg wash to prevent leaks. Fry in small batches for best crunch. Serve immediately for maximum crispiness. Leftovers can be reheated in the oven or air fryer.
