🍒 Air Fryer Cherry Cheesecake Egg Rolls
🧂 Ingredients:
-
8 egg roll wrappers
-
1 (8 oz) block cream cheese, softened
-
¼ cup granulated sugar
-
½ tsp vanilla extract
-
½ tsp lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
-
1 cup cherry pie filling (canned or homemade)
-
1 egg (for sealing wrappers)
-
Nonstick cooking spray or light oil
-
Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
🔪 Instructions:
-
Make the Cheesecake Filling:
-
In a bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice (if using) until smooth and creamy.
-
-
Assemble the Egg Rolls:
-
Lay out an egg roll wrapper like a diamond.
-
Spoon about 1 tbsp of cheesecake filling and 1 tbsp cherry pie filling into the center.
-
Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, then fold in the sides.
-
Brush the top corner with beaten egg, then roll tightly to seal.
-
Repeat with remaining wrappers.
-
-
Air Fry:
-
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3–5 minutes.
-
Lightly spray egg rolls with oil or nonstick spray on all sides.
-
Place in a single layer in the air fryer basket (work in batches if needed).
-
Air fry for 6–8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
-
-
Serve:
-
Let cool slightly (the filling will be hot!).
-
Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate for extra indulgence.
-
🍽️ Tips:
-
Don’t overfill the wrappers — it makes sealing tricky and can cause leaks.
-
Want to make them ahead? Assemble and refrigerate up to 1 day before air frying.
-
Use different pie fillings like blueberry, apple, or strawberry for variety.
Let me know if you’d like a dipping sauce to go with these (e.g., vanilla glaze or whipped cream)!
