Add the green onions, soy sauce, and black pepper. Stir and remove from heat.
1 tsp reduced sodium soy sauce, 2 green onions, 1/4 tsp black pepper
Assemble your egg rolls (see the detailed instructions in the post).
6 egg roll wrappers
Brush olive oil over the top of the egg rolls. Alternatively, you could use a Misto to spray olive oil, but I found that caused the egg roll wrappers to bubble up more when they were cooking.
1 tsp olive oil
Brush olive oil on the basket of your air fryer. Place the egg rolls in the basket, seam side down, without letting them touch each other.
Bake at 360˚F for 7 minutes. Flip and bake for an additional 2 minutes.
Notes
To freeze: place uncooked egg rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and freeze. Then transfer to a freezer-proof bag or container. Do not thaw before cooking. You will need to add 1-3 minutes to the cooking time. Cook at the same temperature as thawed egg rolls.
If you want to add meat to the egg rolls, you'll need to cook it before placing it in the wrapper.
Stovetop Instructions
Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Then add enough avocado oil to cover the bottom of the skillet. Place the egg roll "seam side" down in the oil.
Cook it 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.
Oven Baking Instructions
Place a baking rack on a foil-lined baking sheet. Liberally spray the rack with olive oil.
Put the egg rolls seam-side down on the baking rack and brush olive oil over the top.
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 without being burned.
