- Fresh Peaches: Select ripe peaches for the best flavor; they should be soft yet firm enough to hold their shape during cooking.
- Sugar: Granulated sugar enhances the sweetness of the peaches; adjust based on your taste preference.
- Cinnamon: This warm spice complements the peaches perfectly; feel free to add nutmeg for extra flavor.

How to Make Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls
Follow these simple steps to prepare this delicious dish:
Prepare the Filling: Begin by peeling and chopping fresh peaches into small pieces. In a bowl, mix the chopped peaches with sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice until well combined. Set aside to let the flavors meld while you prepare your wrappers.
Assemble the Egg Rolls: Lay one egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you. Place about two tablespoons of the peach mixture in the center of the wrapper. Fold up the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in both side corners before rolling it tightly away from you to seal.
Heat Oil for Frying: In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C). Ensure there’s enough oil so that your egg rolls can float while frying for even cooking.
Fry Until Golden Brown: Carefully place several prepared egg rolls into hot oil without overcrowding them. Fry each side for about 2-3 minutes until they turn golden brown. Use tongs to flip them gently midway through frying for even browning.
Drain Excess Oil: Once fried, remove the egg rolls from oil and place them on paper towels to absorb excess grease. Allow them to cool slightly before serving so they maintain their shape.
Avoid Overfilling Wraps: Fill each egg roll wrapper lightly—too much filling can cause leakage during frying leading to messy results.
Seal Properly: Make sure all sides of each wrapped egg roll are sealed tightly using water if necessary; this prevents any filling from escaping while frying.
Monitor Oil Temperature: Use a thermometer to keep track of oil temperature; too hot will burn your egg rolls while too cool will leave them greasy.
Experiment with Spices: Feel free to add variety by mixing spices like nutmeg or ginger into your peach filling for different flavor profiles depending on your preference.
For those who enjoy a bit of crunch, serve these egg rolls alongside chopped nuts such as pecans or almonds. The nuts provide a satisfying contrast to the softness of the peaches and the tenderness of the egg roll wrapper, adding another layer of texture and flavor to your dessert.
