What You Need To Make This Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls Recipe?
Peaches: For this recipe, we’ll be using juicy peaches. The natural sweetness and freshness of the peaches are essential in creating that delightful peach cobbler flavor. In case you can’t find fresh peaches, canned ones can work as a substitute. Just make sure to drain them before using them.
Fresh Lemon Juice: To add a tangy zing that perfectly balances the sweetness of the peaches we’ll be using squeezed lemon juice. The acidity of the lemon juice also helps to break down the peaches making them even juicier.
Salted Butter: For a richness that counterbalances the sweetness and adds depth of flavor we’ll be using salted butter in the peach filling.
Light Brown Sugar: To achieve a caramel-like sweetness that beautifully blends with the peaches light brown sugar is preferred over brown sugar. This way it allows the peach flavor to shine through without overpowering it.
Cornstarch: We’ll also be adding cornstarch as a thickening agent to transform the mixture into a jam like filling.
Cinnamon: Cinnamon will bring a warming spice note to our recipe perfectly complementing the sweetness of the peaches.
Vanilla Extract: Lastly vanilla extract will enhance the flavor by adding depth to our peach filling.
Egg Roll Wrappers: As for our delicious fillings vessels we’ll be using egg roll wrappers which turn crispy when fried. To prevent any leakage while frying it’s important to seal the egg roll wrappers
Water: Water is utilized to moisten and seal the edges of the egg roll wrappers ensuring a sealed closure.
Vanilla Bean Paste: In the dipping sauce we incorporate vanilla bean paste to infuse a delightful vanilla flavor that beautifully complements the egg rolls.
Milk: For a pourable sauce that maintains its taste, milk is added to dilute the powdered sugar without compromising its sweetness.
Powdered Sugar: Powdered sugar serves as a foundation, for our vanilla bean sauce. It dissolves seamlessly in the milk resulting in a velvety consistency.
Steps To Make Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls:
Step 1: Now let’s get into the part. The cooking process! To start combine the peaches, lemon juice, butter and brown sugar in a saucepan. Mix in the cornstarch and cinnamon until everything is well incorporated and bring it to a boil. Once it starts bubbling reduce the heat. Let it simmer. After about 10 minutes you’ll notice it thickening. That’s when you should stir in the vanilla extract and allow it to cool.
Step 2: Take out your egg roll wrappers. Ensure that you brush the edges lightly with some water. Place 2 tablespoons of the peach filling at the center of each wrapper. As you roll them up fold in the sides tightly to seal them completely. Fry them with the seam side facing down in oil until they turn golden brown. Remove any oil by draining them on a paper towel. Let them cool for a while before transferring them onto a cooling rack and giving them a sprinkle of confectioners sugar.
Step 3: While your egg rolls are cooling down prepare the Vanilla Bean Sauce by combining all its ingredients. It works wonderfully as either a dip, for your egg rolls or as a drizzle over their top. Voila! You now have these Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls to be savored!
Tip:
Covering the egg rolls with a damp cloth will maintain their moisture and flexibility. If you leave them exposed, they will dry out, making them prone to tearing.
