Sustainability Tip

If you have leftover wrappers, don’t let them go to waste.

Sarah’s Cheat Codes

  • When choosing the apples, I like to look for something sweet and firm like Fuji or Honeycrisp
  • I prefer to brush olive oil over the egg rolls rather than spray them. I find the wrappers bubble up more when sprayed.
  • You can make these ahead of time (yay)! Keep unbaked egg rolls covered in the fridge for up to a day, or freeze on a parchment-lined baking sheet and then transfer to freezer storage. To bake: brush frozen egg rolls with olive oil and then bake for the normal amount of time.

Ingredients 

Apple Pie Egg Rolls

  • 20 egg roll wrappers
  • 2 cups apples {peeled, chopped}
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon {ground}

Cinnamon Yogurt Dip

Instructions 

  • Peel the apples and cut into slices or pieces.
    2 cups apples
  • In a pot fitted with a metal steamer basket, add enough water to cover the bottom of the pan.
  • Place the sliced apples in the steamer basket.
  • Cover the pan and steam the apples on medium-high until the apples are able to be pierced easily with a knife (about 4-5 minutes).
  • Drain apples and place in a small bowl, and gently toss them with cinnamon.
    1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • Assemble the rolls (see the detailed instructions in the post). Brush olive oil over the top of the egg rolls.
    20 egg roll wrappers, 2 tsp olive oil
  • Brush olive oil on the basket of the air fryer. Place the egg rolls in the basket, seam side down, without letting them touch each other. Don't crowd the basket.
  • Bake at 360˚F for 6 minutes. Flip and bake for an additional 2 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Stir well.
    1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 2 tsp brown sugar, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Notes

  1. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
  2. I prefer to brush olive oil over the egg rolls rather than spray them. I find the wrappers bubble up more when sprayed.

Oven Baking Instructions:
  1. Place a baking rack on a foil-lined baking sheet. Liberally spray the rack with olive oil.
  2. Put the egg rolls seam side down on the baking rack and brush olive oil over the top.
  3. Bake at 325˚F for 12 minutes, and flip. Bake for an additional 8-12 minutes or until the egg rolls are nice and crispy.
Skillet Instructions:
  1. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes.  Then add enough olive, coconut, or avocado oil to cover the bottom of the skillet. Place the egg rolls “seam side” down in the oil.
  2. Cook until that side is crispy and brown, and then flip.  When finished cooking, place them on a plate lined with newspaper or paper towels to absorb the extra oil.

  1. Loved the Apple Pie Eggrolls & it turned out perfect. We have the same air fryer. I appreciate the simplicity of letting the apples shine with a dipping sauce on the side. I made a caramel sauce to go with them & a dark chocolate ganache. Thanks for sharing your delicious recipe.5 stars

  2. I have to make these, they sound absolutely delicious and that yogurt dip looks divine. Thank you for sharing the recipe with us 🙂5 stars

  3. I just read that title twice as apple PIG rolls. Than I thought of “pork chops & apple sauce” ~Peter Brady ????

    Seriously those look awesome! No apple sugar goo inside those! Just apples and cinnamon. Yummm!
