Ingredients
Peach Cobbler Filling
- 1 lb Peaches (frozen, sliced or diced)
- 1/3 cup Sugar (or sugar substitute)
- 1/4 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Ground Nutmeg
- 1/4 cup Butter (salted)
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 tsp Cornstarch (mixed with a few drops of oil to prevent clumping, or Xanthan Gum)
Egg Rolls
- 10 Egg Roll Wrappers (10-12 per pack)
- Oil for frying (enough for frying at 350°F)
Topping
- 1/4 cup Sugar (or sugar substitute)
- 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
Optional Serving
- Caramel Syrup
- Vanilla Ice Cream
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: Add the frozen peaches, sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, salted butter, vanilla extract, and cornstarch mixture to a pot. Stir all ingredients to combine evenly.
- Cook the Filling: Cook the mixture over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the peaches are thawed and the mixture forms a light, syrupy consistency.
- Assemble Egg Rolls: Place an egg roll wrapper flat on a clean surface. Spoon 2-3 slices of the peach filling along with some syrup into the center of the wrapper.
- Fold and Seal: Fold the egg roll wrapper around the filling, sealing the edges with a few drops of water to ensure they hold together during frying. Repeat the process for all wrappers and filling.
- Heat Oil for Frying: Heat oil in a frying pan or deep skillet to 350°F (175°C) to get the oil hot enough for frying the egg rolls properly.
- Fry the Egg Rolls: Carefully place the egg rolls into the hot oil in batches, frying until they turn golden brown, about 3-4 minutes total. If shallow frying, turn the egg rolls halfway through to brown both sides evenly.
- Drain and Cool: Remove the fried egg rolls from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain them on a cooling rack or a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Add Cinnamon Sugar: While the egg rolls are still warm, sprinkle the mixture of sugar and ground cinnamon over the top to add a sweet and spicy finish.
- Serve: Optionally, serve the peach cobbler egg rolls with vanilla ice cream scoops and drizzled caramel syrup for an indulgent dessert experience.
Notes
- Ensure the oil reaches 350°F before frying to achieve a crispy, golden finish.
- Do not overfill the egg rolls as it may cause them to burst during frying.
- Use a few drops of water to effectively seal the egg roll edges.
- Serve immediately for best texture, as egg rolls tend to lose crispiness when cooled.
- Substitute sugar with your preferred sugar substitute to make the recipe diabetic-friendly.
- Xanthan gum can be used as a gluten-free alternative to cornstarch as a thickening agent.
