Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced (or a 15-ounce can of peaches, drained)
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (optional, for thickening)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Pinch of salt
- Egg roll wrappers
- Oil for frying (canola or vegetable oil recommended)
- Powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar mix for dusting (optional)
- Vanilla ice cream for serving (optional)
Instructions
-
Prepare the Peach Filling:
- If using fresh peaches, peel, pit, and dice them. If using canned peaches, drain them thoroughly.
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
- Add the peaches, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt to the skillet.
- If the mixture is too juicy, sprinkle in the flour to help thicken it.
- Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peaches are tender and the mixture has thickened.
- Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
-
Assemble the Egg Rolls:
- Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean, dry surface with one corner pointing toward you, forming a diamond shape.
- Place 2-3 tablespoons of the peach filling near the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the side corners.
- Roll the wrapper tightly toward the top corner, sealing the edge with a dab of water.
- Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
-
Fry the Egg Rolls:
- In a deep fryer or large pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C).
- Carefully place a few egg rolls into the hot oil, avoiding overcrowding.
- Fry for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove and drain on paper towels.
-
Serve:
- Dust the warm egg rolls with powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar, if desired.
- Serve immediately, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Variations: For added flavor, consider mixing in a handful of raspberries or blueberries with the peaches.
- Storage: Leftover egg rolls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in an oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness.
- Baking Option: For a lighter version, bake the assembled egg rolls in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crisp.
