## Ingredients:
- 1 cup canned peaches, drained and finely chopped
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- Vegetable oil, for frying
## Method:
### Step 1: Prepare the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until everything is evenly mixed. This fragrant mixture already sets the stage for a delicious outcome!
### Step 2: Assemble the Egg Rolls
Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon a tablespoon of the peach filling into the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then tuck in the sides and roll tightly. To seal, dab the edge with a bit of water. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
### Step 3: Preheat Oil
In a deep fryer or large pan, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). This is the magic temperature for achieving that perfect crispy exterior!
### Step 4: Brush and Sprinkle
Lightly brush each egg roll with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar. This step adds a delightful sweetness and a beautiful golden finish to your egg rolls.
### Step 5: Fry the Egg Rolls
Fry the egg rolls in batches, turning occasionally for 3-5 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy. The kitchen will be filled with delicious smells, and trust me, your patience will be rewarded!
### Step 6: Drain and Serve
Remove the egg rolls from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain. Serve warm and enjoy these sweet, crispy treats that bring back summer memories with every bite!
## Serving Suggestions & Pairings
These crispy peach cobbler egg rolls are divine on their own, but for an extra special treat, serve them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce. Pair with a refreshing summer peach iced tea for a delightful dessert experience!
## Storage & Leftovers Guide
Best enjoyed fresh, these egg rolls can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days. If you have leftovers, reheat them in an oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes for that just-fried crunch again.
## Kitchen Wisdom & Success Tips
- Ensure Proper Seal: Make sure you seal the egg rolls tightly to prevent the filling from leaking out during frying.
- Maintain Oil Temperature: Use a thermometer to keep the oil at the correct temperature; too hot can burn, too cold can cause greasy results.
- Experiment with Spices: Feel free to add a pinch of cardamom or ginger for a different flavor profile.
## Flavor Variations & Adaptations
- Add Berries: Mix fresh or frozen blueberries or raspberries with the peach filling for a mixed berry flavor.
- Crispy Topping: If you want them extra crunchy, consider dusting the egg rolls with crushed graham crackers before frying.
