Apple Pie Egg Rolls

by

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups apples, peeled and finely chopped (use a mix of sweet and tart varieties)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 package egg roll wrappers (usually about 12 wrappers)
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • Caramel sauce for drizzling (optional)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Apple Filling:
    • In a bowl, mix together the chopped apples, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour until the apples are well coated. Set aside.
  2. Roll ‘Em Up:
    • Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you. Place a spoonful of the apple mixture in the center of the wrapper.
    • Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll it up tightly. Seal the edge with a bit of water.
  3. Repeat and Assemble:
    • Repeat the process until all the wrappers are filled and rolled.
  4. Ready to Fry:
    • Heat about 2 inches of oil in a pan to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place a few egg rolls into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, turning as needed. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
  5. Drain and Dip:
    • Remove the egg rolls and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Brush each roll with melted butter.
  6. Sweet Finish:
    • Dust the Apple Pie Egg Rolls with powdered sugar and, if you’re feeling extra indulgent, drizzle with caramel sauce.
  7. Serve Warm:
    • These are best enjoyed warm, so dive into the deliciousness as soon as they’re cool enough to handle.
  8. Cue the Applause:
    • Get ready for a standing ovation from your taste testers – these Apple Pie Egg Rolls are a showstopper!
