From my years baking professionally, I found that rolling technique makes all the difference. My old teacher always told me, 'When you roll them tight, they taste just right.'

Tasty Accompaniments

Enjoy these tasty rolls with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, some warm blueberry sauce drizzled on top, or a dollop of fresh whipped cream. For fancy gatherings, try setting up a plate with different dips to try.

Fun Twists

Try swapping in other berries, sprinkle in some white chocolate pieces, or add a bit of lemon curd for extra tang. When fall comes around, you can stuff them with spiced apples or pears instead.

Keeping Them Fresh

If uncooked, put paper between each roll in the fridge. After frying, leave them out at room temp and warm them in the oven when you want that crunch back. After making countless batches at home, I've learned these egg rolls hit that sweet spot between effort and reward. They've become my favorite thing to make when I want friends to try something different but totally delicious.
