How To Make Easy Air Fryer Cherry Cheesecake Egg Rolls

Step One: In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with granulated sugar and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined. This will be the cheesecake part of your filling.

Step Two: Mix until smooth.

Step Three: Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface. Place a spoonful of the cheesecake mixture in the center of the wrapper. Top it with a few cherries from the cherry pie filling. Ensure not to overfill to avoid leaking during cooking.

Step Four; Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then roll it up tightly. Seal the edge with a bit of water to keep it closed.

Step Five: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the egg rolls in the basket. Lightly spray the tops of the egg rolls with cooking spray as well. This will help them turn golden brown.

Step Six: Set air fryer temperature to 350 degrees F, and set cook time for 8-10 minutes, flipping them halfway through until golden brown and crispy.

Easy Air Fryer Cherry Cheesecake Egg Rolls Recipe Tips

• Don’t overfill the wrappers: Too much filling can cause leaks while cooking.
• Seal edges well: Use a little water to ensure the egg rolls stay closed.
• Use room temperature cream cheese: This helps create a smooth, creamy cheesecake filling.
• Preheat the air fryer: Ensures even crisping of the wrappers.
• Check halfway through cooking: Rotate or flip if needed for golden, even results.
• Cool slightly before serving: Filling will set and avoid burning your mouth.

Storing Instructions

Faq’s

Can I use any type of pie filling for these egg rolls? Absolutely! While cherry is a popular choice, you can use any fruit pie filling such as apple, blueberry, or strawberry for different flavors.

How do I prevent the egg rolls from opening up in the air fryer? Ensure you seal the egg rolls properly by moistening the edges of the wrappers with water. Press down firmly to create a tight seal.

Can I make these egg rolls ahead of time? You can assemble the egg rolls ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator. However, for the best texture, it’s recommended to air fry them just before serving.

What temperature is best for cooking these in the air fryer? A temperature of around 370°F to 390°F is ideal. This allows the egg rolls to crisp up nicely without burning.

How long should I cook them in the air fryer? The cooking time usually ranges from 8 to 10 minutes, but this can vary depending on your air fryer model. It’s good to check them halfway through and flip for even cooking.

Can I freeze these egg rolls? Yes, you can freeze the assembled, uncooked egg rolls. When ready to eat, you can cook them directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

What’s the best way to serve these egg rolls? Serve them warm with a dusting of powdered sugar or with dipping sauces like chocolate, caramel, or even whipped cream.

Is it necessary to use cooking spray? Lightly spraying the egg rolls with cooking spray helps achieve a golden, crispy exterior. However, you can skip it if you prefer.

Can I use regular cheesecake filling? Yes, you can use a basic cheesecake filling. Just ensure it’s thick enough to not ooze out during cooking.

How can I reheat leftovers? Reheat them in the air fryer for a few minutes to maintain the crispiness. Microwaving is not recommended as it can make them soggy.
