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.

Recipe FAQs

→ Can I swap blueberries for other fruit?
Totally! Use raspberries, strawberries, or a berry medley. Chop bigger fruits to a similar size.
→ Why does the filling ooze out?
Seal those edges tight with egg wash and don’t overstuff. Stick to 2-3 tablespoons of filling.
→ Can I avoid frying them?
Absolutely! Try baking at 400°F for 15-20 minutes or air frying at 375°F for about 8-10 minutes. Add a little oil for a better finish.
→ How do I save extras?
Pop them in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to make them crunchy again.
→ Can I prep them ahead of time?
For sure! Put them together up to a day in advance and stash in the fridge. Cook right before eating for the best taste.

Difficulty: Intermediate

Cuisine: Fusion

Yield: 10 Servings (8-10 rolls)

Dietary Preferences: Vegetarian

Ingredients

→ Filling Prep

01 1 cup blueberries (frozen or fresh)
02 8 oz cream cheese, softened
03 1 tsp vanilla extract
04 1/4 cup sugar (granulated)

→ Putting It All Together

05 Egg roll wrappers (8 to 10)
06 1 beaten egg (for sealing edges)
07 Oil made for frying, like vegetable

→ Toppings or Extras

08 Dusting of powdered sugar
09 Optional: whipped cream, honey, or maple syrup

Steps

Step 01

Blend the cream cheese with sugar and vanilla until smooth. Stir the berries in gently at the end so you don’t mash them up.

Step 02

Lay an egg roll wrapper down in a diamond shape. Add 2-3 spoonfuls of filling in the middle. Fold the lower corner up over the filling, then tuck the sides inward. Roll tightly toward the top and seal up with the egg wash.

Step 03

Pour about 2 inches of frying oil into a deep pan, heating until 350°F. Check the temperature with a thermometer for accuracy.

Step 04

Drop 2-3 rolls into the heated oil at a time. Cook on each side for 2-3 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Remove and set them on paper towels to cool.

Step 05

While still warm, sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve alongside whipped cream, honey, or syrup if you’re feeling fancy.

Notes

  1. Bake them at 400°F for 15-20 minutes if you want to cut back on frying.
  2. An air fryer works like a charm at 375°F for about 8-10 minutes.
  3. These can be prepped a day in advance and stored in the fridge.
