Air Fryer Cherry Cheesecake Egg Rolls are a fun and delicious dessert that’s crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, and bursting with sweet cherry flavor. Here’s how you can make them!
Air Fryer Cherry Cheesecake Egg Rolls
Ingredients:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup cherry pie filling
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- 1 tablespoon melted butter (for brushing)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling:
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy.
2. Assemble the Egg Rolls:
- Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you (like a diamond shape).
- Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture onto the center of the wrapper.
- Add a spoonful of cherry pie filling on top of the cream cheese mixture.
- Fold the bottom corner of the egg roll wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly to seal. Use a small dab of water to seal the edge if needed.
- Repeat this process for all 8 egg rolls.
3. Air Fry the Egg Rolls:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Brush the egg rolls lightly with melted butter to give them a golden, crispy exterior.
- Place the egg rolls in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they aren’t touching. You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Air fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the egg rolls are golden brown and crispy.
4. Serve:
- Remove the egg rolls from the air fryer and let them cool slightly.
- Dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve with extra cherry pie filling or whipped cream for dipping.
Tips:
- Extra Crispy: For an even crispier finish, spray the egg rolls lightly with cooking spray before air frying.
- Fruit Fillings: You can use other fruit fillings such as blueberry, strawberry, or apple pie filling for different flavor variations.
- Dipping Sauce: A drizzle of chocolate sauce, caramel, or whipped cream pairs wonderfully with these egg rolls!
