Ingredients
Peach Filling:
- 2 cups chopped peaches (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons salted butter (or unsalted with a pinch of salt)
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 4 teaspoons cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Egg Rolls:
- 10 egg roll wrappers
- 2 tablespoons water (for brushing)
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Vanilla Bean Dipping Sauce:
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
- 2-3 tablespoons milk
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
1. Prepare the Peach Filling:
- In a small saucepan, combine the chopped peaches, lemon juice, butter, brown sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon.
- Bring the mixture to a boil while stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until the filling has thickened.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and remove from heat. Allow the filling to cool slightly before assembling the egg rolls.
2. Assemble the Egg Rolls:
- Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you (like a diamond shape).
- Brush the edges of the wrapper with water to help seal.
- Place about 2 tablespoons of the cooled peach filling in the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly, sealing the top corner with a bit more water.
- Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
3. Fry the Egg Rolls:
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 350°F (175°C).
- Carefully place the egg rolls into the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
- Fry until the egg rolls are deep golden brown, about 5-6 minutes.
- Remove the egg rolls with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack over paper towels to drain and cool.
- If desired, dust the cooled egg rolls with powdered sugar.
4. Prepare the Vanilla Bean Dipping Sauce:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla bean paste until smooth and well combined.
- Add a pinch of salt to taste, mixing thoroughly.
5. Serve:
- Serve the warm peach cobbler egg rolls with the vanilla bean dipping sauce on the side.
- Enjoy the crispy, sweet goodness of these Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls with family and friends!
Helpful Tips
- Peach Variations: Fresh peaches work best, but frozen or canned peaches can be used if drained well.

- Oil Temperature: Keep the oil at a consistent 350°F to ensure the egg rolls cook evenly without absorbing too much oil.
- Dipping Sauce Consistency: Adjust the amount of milk in the dipping sauce to reach your desired thickness.
