Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 3 cups diced Granny Smith Apples substitute with Honeycrisp for extra sweetness
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar or use coconut sugar for a lower glycemic option
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon can be exchanged with an apple pie spice mix
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch can be replaced with arrowroot powder
  • 4 ounces cream cheese substitute with ricotta for a lighter option
Wrappers
  • 10 pieces egg roll wrappers use spring roll wrappers for a lighter version
Topping and Baking
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar or use stevia or monk fruit for a sugar-free version
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons cooking oil ensures golden, crispy texture

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • mixing bowl

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine diced Granny Smith apples, light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and cornstarch. Toss until evenly coated, then set aside.
  3. Lay out your egg roll wrappers in a diamond shape. Spoon 2 teaspoons of cream cheese and top with 2 tablespoons of the apple mixture in the center of each wrapper.
  4. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then roll tightly while tucking in the sides to seal. Use water on fingertips if necessary to help secure the edges.
  5. Place the sealed egg rolls on the baking sheet, spaced evenly. Lightly brush each egg roll with cooking oil.
  6. Bake the Apple Pie Egg Rolls for 15 to 17 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning.
  7. Combine granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a shallow dish for the topping.
  8. Roll the baked egg rolls in the cinnamon sugar mixture while warm to create a sugary crust.
  9. Serve warm with a side of caramel sauce for dipping.
