Key Ingredients & Substitutions
Peaches: Whether using fresh or frozen, both work well, but fresh peaches add a brighter flavor. If you can’t find peaches, other fruits like apples or nectarines can create a fun twist!
Granulated & Brown Sugar: These sugars balance the sweetness and add depth. You can swap out the sugars for coconut sugar or honey if you prefer, but adjust the amounts as needed since they vary in sweetness.
Cinnamon & Nutmeg: These spices enhance the flavor. If you don’t have nutmeg, a pinch of allspice or pumpkin pie spice could do the trick. I love adding a bit of ginger for an extra zing!
Egg Roll Wrappers: Use store-bought for convenience. If you’re looking for a healthier option, try using rice paper wraps or even spring roll wrappers, but they might need a different cooking method.
How Do You Keep Egg Rolls Crispy After Frying?
To ensure your egg rolls stay crispy, follow these simple tips:
- Fry in batches, don’t overcrowd the oil. This keeps the oil temperature consistent.
- Let excess oil drip off by placing them on a cooling rack instead of paper towels. This prevents sogginess.
- Serve immediately after frying for the best texture. But if making ahead, keep them warm in a low oven.
These tips will help you serve perfectly crispy peach cobbler egg rolls every time! Enjoy them fresh and warm for the best experience.
Easy Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 2 cups fresh or frozen peaches (diced)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8-10 egg roll wrappers
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
How Much Time Will You Need?
This delightful recipe takes about 15 minutes of prep time and around 10 minutes for frying. You’ll spend just a short while cooking the peach filling and wrapping the egg rolls, making this a quick and easy dessert that’s comforting and delicious!
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Prepare the Peach Filling:
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine diced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir everything together while cooking for about 5 minutes until it thickens and looks glossy. Once it’s ready, remove from heat and let it cool slightly while you prep the egg rolls.
2. Assemble the Egg Rolls:
Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape (point facing you). Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the peach filling onto the bottom third of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly towards the top corner. Moisten the top corner with some water to seal it. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
3. Fry the Egg Rolls:
In a deep skillet or pot, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the egg rolls in the hot oil, frying them in batches so you don’t overcrowd the pan. Fry each egg roll for about 3-4 minutes, turning them occasionally until they are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and let them drain on paper towels.
4. Dust and Serve:
Once the egg rolls are done frying, dust them generously with powdered sugar while they’re still warm. Serve immediately, and enjoy these delicious, crispy peach cobbler egg rolls while they’re fresh!
This recipe yields delightful, crispy egg rolls filled with sweet, warmly spiced peaches — perfect for a quick and impressive dessert!
FAQ for Easy Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls
Can I Use Canned Peaches Instead of Fresh or Frozen?
Absolutely! Canned peaches work well in this recipe. Just make sure to drain them well before dicing to avoid excess moisture. You might want to adjust the sugar based on the sweetness of the canned peaches.
How Can I Make These Egg Rolls Ahead of Time?
You can prepare the peach filling and assemble the egg rolls up to a few hours in advance. Keep them covered in the fridge until you’re ready to fry. This way, they’ll be fresh, easy, and ready to go when you need them!
What Should I Do If My Egg Rolls Are Too Greasy After Frying?
If your egg rolls come out greasy, it might be due to the frying temperature being too low. Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying. After frying, let them drain on paper towels or a cooling rack to remove excess oil.
Can I Bake These Egg Rolls Instead of Frying?
Yes! You can bake the egg rolls for a healthier option. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C), place the rolls on a lined baking sheet, and lightly brush or spray them with oil. Bake for about 15-20 minutes until golden and crispy, flipping halfway through.
