Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Peach Filling
- In a medium saucepan, combine the diced peaches, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and vanilla extract.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and let the filling cool completely. This step is crucial to prevent the wrappers from becoming soggy.
Assemble the Egg Rolls
- Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape (one corner pointing toward you).
- Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the cooled peach filling onto the center of the wrapper. Be careful not to overfill, as this can cause the wrappers to burst during frying.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll tightly toward the top corner.
- Brush the top corner with a little water to seal the egg roll. This ensures the filling stays inside while frying. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Coat and Fry the Egg Rolls
- In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon for coating. Set aside.
- Heat oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to maintain the correct temperature, as this is key to achieving a crispy texture.
- Fry the egg rolls in batches for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan, as this can lower the oil temperature and result in greasy egg rolls.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
- While still warm, brush each egg roll with melted butter and roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat. This adds an extra layer of sweetness and flavor.
Make the Glaze (Optional)
- In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if needed.
- Drizzle the glaze over the warm egg rolls before serving. This step is optional but highly recommended for an extra touch of sweetness.
Serve and Enjoy
- Serve the peach cobbler egg rolls warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat. They’re perfect for sharing at parties, potlucks, or family gatherings.
