Description
Delightful egg rolls filled with sweet apple filling and warm spices, offering a playful twist on traditional apple pie.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large apples (grated or diced)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons sugar (brown or white)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of nutmeg (optional)
- 1 pack of egg roll wrappers
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
- Ice cream or caramel sauce (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a skillet, combine the apples, lemon juice, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, just until the apples soften. Set aside to cool.
- Assemble the egg rolls: Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner facing you. Add a spoonful of cooled apple filling in the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly to seal.
- Heat the oil: In a deep skillet or pot, heat enough vegetable oil to cover the bottom, about 1-2 inches deep.
- Fry the rolls: Carefully add the egg rolls to the hot oil, frying until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Serve warm: Enjoy with a scoop of ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an indulgent treat.
Notes
Consider double frying for extra crunch or adding other spices to the filling. Customize the apple filling with raisins or nuts for added texture.
