Step-by-Step Instructions to Make Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls
- Cook the Peach Filling
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine diced peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. Stir until bubbly, then mix in the cornstarch slurry. Cook 1–2 minutes until thickened. Let cool slightly. - Prepare the Cream Cheese
Soften cream cheese until spreadable. You can sweeten it with a touch of powdered sugar if you prefer. - Assemble the Egg Rolls
Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape. Spread a little cream cheese in the center, add a spoonful of peach filling, then fold the bottom corner up, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly. Seal the edge with water. - Fry Until Golden
Heat oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry the rolls in batches, 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels. - Serve & Enjoy
Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm. They’re even better with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
Expert Tip: Don’t overfill the wrappers — it’ll make sealing tricky and cause leaks during frying.
Recipe Tips & Variations
- Air Fryer Option: Brush rolls with oil and air fry at 375°F for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway.
- Add Crunch: Mix in a few chopped pecans or crushed graham crackers with the filling.
- Make It Vegan: Use dairy-free cream cheese and egg-free wrappers.
- Spice It Up: Add a pinch of ginger or cardamom for a bolder flavor.
How to Store & Reheat
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheat in an air fryer or oven at 350°F for 5–7 minutes until crisp. Avoid microwaving to maintain texture.
