Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 2 cups peeled and diced fresh or canned peaches (drained if canned)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
Assembly
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- Water (for sealing wrappers)
Frying
- Vegetable oil (for frying, about 2 inches deep)
Glaze
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1–2 tablespoons milk
Instructions
- Prepare the peach filling: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Cook for 5–7 minutes until the peaches become tender and a syrup forms.
- Thicken the filling: Stir in the cornstarch and continue cooking for 1–2 minutes until the filling thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Assemble the egg rolls: Lay one egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner facing you. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the peach filling near the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly. Seal the edge with a dab of water to ensure it sticks. Repeat this process for all wrappers and filling.
- Heat the oil: Pour vegetable oil into a deep skillet or pot to a depth of about 2 inches. Heat the oil to 350°F (175°C), using a thermometer to check the temperature for accurate frying.
- Fry the egg rolls: Carefully place the egg rolls in batches into the hot oil. Fry for 2–3 minutes on each side, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain oil temperature.
- Drain and cool: Remove the fried egg rolls with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and 1–2 tablespoons of milk until a smooth glaze forms. Adjust milk quantity to achieve desired consistency.
- Serve: Drizzle the glaze over the warm egg rolls before serving for a sweet finishing touch.
Notes
- For an extra crispy texture, you can air-fry the egg rolls at 375°F (190°C) for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Serve the egg rolls with vanilla ice cream for a decadent dessert experience.
- Use fresh peaches for the best flavor, but canned peaches work well if drained properly.
- Ensure oil temperature is maintained during frying to avoid greasy egg rolls.
- Egg roll wrappers can be found in the refrigerated section of most grocery stores or Asian markets.
