Ingredients

For the Apple Filling

  • 2 cups Granny Smith apples peeled and diced
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 teapoons lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon cloves
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Baked Egg Rolls

  • 8 egg roll wrappers
  • 1/2 tablespoon of butter melted
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

For the Cinnamon Whipped Cream

  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream cold
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Instructions

To Make the Baked Egg Rolls

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray it with cooking spray.
  • In a medium sized saucepan over medium high heat add all of the apple filling ingredients except the vanilla and stir together.
  • Cook the apples for about 3-4 minutes or until the mixture has thickened.
  • Once the apple filling has thickened turn the heat down to medium low, cover with a lid, and cook for another 6-8 minutes or until the apples have softened slightly.
  • Remove the filling from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Take one egg roll wrapper, lay it out on a clean, dry cutting board and brush water around each edge. Spoon about 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons of the apple filling into the upper half of the wrapper, leaving a border.
  • Fold in the sides and roll up the egg roll tightly.
  • Place the egg rolls on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down and repeat until all the filling is gone.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes then brush each egg roll with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Bake for 5 more minutes then remove from the oven.
  • Cool for 5-10 minutes before serving with the Cinnamon Whipped Cream.

To Make the Cinnamon Whipped Cream

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, whisk the 1/2 cup of whipping cream on high until soft peaks form.
  • Turn the mixer off and add in the cinnamon, vanilla, and powdered sugar.
  • Continue to whisk the whipped cream on high speed until stiff peaks form.

Notes

  • When assembling the egg rolls be sure to keep the wrappers covered with a damp paper towel as they dry out quickly.
  • Don't overfill the egg rolls or they will split in the oven.
  • You can prep the apple pie filling in advance and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Assemble and bake just prior to serving. 
STORAGE: These egg rolls are best eaten immediately or immediately frozen for storage. Once the egg rolls have cooled on the baking sheet, put the baking sheet in the oven for a few hours to freeze. Once frozen, remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the egg rolls to a freezer safe bag and place the bag in the freezer. To reheat, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until heated through.
