Instructions

1. Prepare filling: If using canned pie filling, chop apples into smaller pieces. Stir in cinnamon for extra flavor.

2. Fill egg rolls:

   • Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, corner pointing toward you.

   • Place 2–3 tbsp apple filling in 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.

3. Fry:

   • Heat oil to 350°F (175°C).

   • Fry egg rolls 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.

   • Drain on paper towels.

4. Coat (optional): Roll hot egg rolls in cinnamon-sugar mixture for a sweet finish.

5. Serve: Enjoy warm with caramel drizzle, whipped cream, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

✨ Shortcuts & Variations:

• Air Fryer Method: Spray with oil and cook at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway.

• Fall twist: Use pumpkin pie filling for pumpkin pie egg rolls.
