How To Make Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls
Prepare the peach cobbler mixture first. While it is cooling, let the electric frying skillet or deep fryer heat the oil.
Trim, Peel, and Cut the Peaches
- If using fresh peaches, trim any bruises off, peel them if you prefer, and cut up into pieces.
- Place in a bowl and add the lemon juice and the almond extract. In a separate small bowl, blend the sugar, pinch of salt, and cornstarch together so the cornstarch has no lumps.
Mix The Peach Cobbler Filling
- Stir well to mix the peaches with the dry sugar and cornstarch mixture. Make sure you don't have any cornstarch lumps.
Cook and Thicken the Peach Cobbler
- Pour the bowl of mixed peaches and sugar mixture into a saucepan. Heat on medium low stirring so the cobbler mixture doesn't stick.
- Cook for 5 minutes on low, stirring frequently, to ensure the cornstarch is fully cooked.
Roll Up The Egg Rolls
- Instead of laying the egg roll wrappers like a square, turn them so a point is to the left, right, top, and bottom. Like a diamond.
- You will wet your fingers as you work, moistening the edges of the egg roll that will be folded over, or rolled up. This seals the egg roll and prevents cobbler from leaking out when frying.
- Roll the bottom point up and over the cobbler mixture. Wet your fingertips and moisten the point of the wrapper so it sticks in place.
- Dampen the points of the left and right side of the egg roll wrapper. Fold them over and gently press them in place.
Finish Rolling The Egg Rolls Up and Fry
- Use the water to wet the point on the last part of the roll up, it will ensure the egg roll stays sealed while frying.
- Place in the electric frying skillet. You can deep fry or shallow fry, that is up to you. If shallow frying, be sure to turn so that all sides get golden brown.
- When finished frying the egg rolls, set them on either a wire rack to cool, or paper towels. Dust with powdered sugar when cooled.

There are several ways to fry these egg rolls. I used an electric frying skillet that had 'grill' ridges. The benefit of using an electric skillet is that the heat is controlled. You set it to 350 F, and you don't have to adjust or keep track of the temperature with a thermometer. My peach cobble egg rolls show the lines faintly.
You can use an ordinary cast iron skillet also. Another option is a small deep fryer like the Fry Daddy. Below are the links to various options:
Storage Options
Store the wet ingredients (lettuce, tomato, onion) separately from the dry ingredients (buns) in the fridge, and recombine when ready. Good for 2-3 days.
Tips for Success
- Be sure to use the lemon juice for the peaches as it keep them from turning brown. If you make apple egg rolls, use lemon for them also.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, they can! Roll up the egg rolls and get them ready to be fried. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate up to a day before frying.
No, not at all. I actually prefer the skins on, as it adds more flavor.
That's what the little bowl of water is for. You dip your fingers in the water and brush it on the egg roll wrapper before folding over or rolling up. The water against the egg roll wrapper allows it to stick together and create a seal. This also prevents the cobbler from leaking out.
