Description
These Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls are a cozy little twist on classic peach cobbler—warm cinnamon peaches wrapped in a crisp, golden shell. They’re quick to make, fun to serve, and perfect for brunch, dessert, or anytime you want something sweet and crunchy.
Ingredients
– 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced (about 3 medium peaches)
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1 tsp ground cinnamon
– 1 tbsp lemon juice
– 1 tbsp cornstarch (optional, but helps thicken the filling)
– 12 egg roll wrappers
– Neutral oil, for frying (enough for about 1 inch in the pan)
– Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions
1. In a small saucepan, combine peaches, sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and cornstarch (if using).
2. Cook over medium heat for 5–7 minutes, stirring often, until peaches soften and the juices look glossy and lightly thickened.
3. Remove from heat and let the filling cool for 10–15 minutes (cool filling helps prevent soggy wrappers).
4. Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape. Spoon 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons filling into the center.
5. Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, fold in the sides, and roll tightly. Seal the edge with a dab of water.
6. Heat about 1 inch of oil in a skillet or deep pan to 350°F (175°C).
7. Fry egg rolls in batches for 2–3 minutes per side, turning until evenly golden and crisp.
8. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate or a wire rack to drain. Dust with powdered sugar if desired, and serve warm.
Notes
For the crispiest texture, let the filling cool before wrapping and fry in small batches so the oil stays hot. These are dreamy with vanilla ice cream, but also delicious with Greek yogurt and a drizzle of honey for a brunchy twist.

Ingredients Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls (And Why They Matter)
Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls rely on a small list of simple ingredients — but each one plays an important role in recreating that warm, classic cobbler flavor inside a crisp shell.
Core Ingredients & Their Purpose
- Fresh peaches — The heart of the recipe. Ripe peaches provide natural sweetness, juiciness, and that signature cobbler flavor.
- Brown sugar — Adds a deep, caramel-like sweetness that pairs beautifully with fruit.
- Cinnamon — Brings cozy warmth and enhances the natural flavor of the peaches.
- Vanilla extract (optional) — Softens the sweetness and adds a bakery-style aroma.
- Cornstarch (optional but helpful) — Thickens the filling so it stays rich instead of runny.
- Egg roll wrappers — Create the crispy, golden shell that gives these treats their satisfying crunch.
- Oil or cooking spray — Ensures a crisp exterior when frying, baking, or air frying.
Helpful Ingredient Tips
- Choose peaches that are slightly soft and fragrant — firm peaches lack flavor, while overripe ones can become mushy.
- If using canned or frozen peaches, drain excess liquid to prevent soggy filling.
- Want a richer flavor? Add a tiny pinch of nutmeg or a splash of lemon juice to brighten the sweetness.
Each ingredient works together to create a filling that feels jammy, fragrant, and nostalgic — just like classic peach cobbler, but wrapped in a crisp, handheld form.
Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls — Ingredient Swaps
If you need to make any adjustments, here are a few easy ingredient substitutions:
| Needs | Swap | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Fresh peaches | Canned or frozen peaches | For convenience or if fresh are unavailable |
| Brown sugar | Granulated sugar | Brown sugar adds a deeper caramel note, but granulated will work in a pinch |
| Egg roll wrappers | Wonton or spring roll wrappers | For a slightly different texture and shape |
Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls — Tools You’ll Need
You don’t need anything fancy to make these — just a few everyday kitchen essentials:
- Cutting board and sharp knife (for prepping peaches)
- Medium saucepan (to cook the filling)
- Mixing bowl (to combine flavors)
- Pastry brush or fingertip (to seal wrappers)
- Skillet or air fryer (for cooking the egg rolls)
A small spoon or cookie scoop can help portion the filling evenly and keep each egg roll neat and uniform.
How to Make Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls (Step-by-Step)
Making Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls is surprisingly simple — the process is easy enough for beginners but satisfying for experienced home cooks.
Step 1 — Prepare the Peach Filling
Start by peeling (optional) and dicing peaches into small, even pieces. In a saucepan, combine peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring gently, until the peaches soften and release their juices. The mixture should become glossy, lightly thickened, and fragrant. Let the filling cool before wrapping — this helps prevent soggy wrappers.
Step 2 — Assemble the Egg Rolls
Lay one egg roll wrapper in a diamond shape. Spoon a small amount of filling into the center — avoid overfilling to prevent leaks. Gently fold the bottom corner over the filling, tuck the sides in neatly, and roll it up into a tight little parcel, Seal the edge with a dab of water.
Step 3 — Cook Until Golden
Choose your preferred method:
- Fry: Cook in hot oil until crisp and golden
- Air Fry: Cook at 400°F for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway
- Bake: Brush with butter and bake at 400°F until crisp
Pro Tips for Best Results
- Work in small batches to keep wrappers crisp
- Keep wrapped egg rolls covered with a towel to prevent drying
- Let cooked egg rolls rest briefly before serving — this keeps the filling thick and luscious
The result? Crispy, golden pastry wrapped around warm, syrupy peach filling — cozy, nostalgic, and wonderfully indulgent.
Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls Nutrition Notes
These Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls are a sweet comfort treat — crisp on the outside, juicy in the middle — so the nutrition will mostly depend on (1) wrapper size, (2) how much filling you use, and (3) your cooking method (fried vs air-fried vs baked). Fried versions usually come out richer because the wrapper can absorb some oil during cooking, while air frying/baking keeps things lighter.
What usually affects the numbers most:
- Oil used for frying (biggest swing)
- Sugar amount (brown sugar + any glaze)
- Wrapper brand/size (some are thicker and higher-calorie)
- Serving extras (ice cream, caramel, powdered sugar)
If you want a lighter feel (without losing the cozy vibe):
- Use air fryer or oven-bake instead of deep frying
- Keep filling to 1 heaping tablespoon per roll (less leakage + more even cooking)
- Add cornstarch to thicken the peach syrup so you don’t need extra sugar
- Serve with Greek yogurt + honey instead of ice cream for brunch balance
Quick nutrition “drivers” table
| Choice | What changes | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Frying | More oil absorbed | Richer, crispier |
| Air fry/bake | Less added fat | Lighter, still crisp |
| Glaze/caramel | More sugar | Sweeter, more calories |

Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls — Storage & Reheating
These egg rolls are at their best fresh and crisp, but leftovers can still be delicious if you store them the right way. The main goal is to protect that crunchy wrapper from moisture.
Storage (best practice):
- Cool egg rolls completely (warm steam = soggy wrapper).
- Store in an airtight container lined with a paper towel (absorbs extra moisture).
- Refrigerate and enjoy within 3–4 days for food safety.
- Don’t leave them out at room temp longer than 2 hours (1 hour if it’s very hot).
Reheating (for crispness):
- Oven: 350°F (175°C) for ~6–10 minutes
- Air fryer: 350–375°F (175–190°C) for ~3–6 minutes
- Microwave: works in a pinch, but softens the wrapper (least crispy)
A cozy little tip: reheat on a rack (or just avoid stacking) so air can circulate and the shell stays crisp.
Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls — FAQ’s
Can I use canned or frozen peaches for Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls?
If fresh peaches aren’t available, canned or frozen ones work beautifully and still deliver great flavor. Be sure to drain canned peaches thoroughly and thaw frozen peaches fully to avoid excess liquid, which can make the filling watery and soften the wrappers.
Do Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls need to be fried?
No. While frying creates the crispiest texture, you can also air fry or bake them for a lighter option. Air frying at 400°F (200°C) gives a great crunch with less oil, and baking works well if brushed lightly with butter or oil.
How do I keep Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls from getting soggy?
To keep them crisp:
– Let the peach filling cool before wrapping
– Avoid overfilling the wrappers
– Cook in small batches so heat stays consistent
– Cool on a rack instead of stacking
These steps help preserve a crunchy shell and thick, jammy filling.
Can Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls Be Prepared in Advance?
Yes. You can prepare the peach filling up to 3 days in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Assemble and cook the egg rolls fresh for the best texture.
Can Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls be frozen?
Freezing is not recommended once cooked, as the wrappers can lose crispness. If needed, you can freeze uncooked assembled egg rolls, then cook directly from frozen — adding a few extra minutes to cooking time.
