Apple Pie Egg Rolls W/Caramel Dipping Sauce

Crispy dessert egg rolls filled with warm apple pie filling and served with a caramel dipping sauce. 

Summer is finally winding down, and back to school is quickly approaching. August has been unseasonably cooler in North Texas which has been a welcome relief. With all the rain and cooler temps (high 80's - Low 90's) I can't help but to think of fall.   

For Texas fall doesn't officially start temperature wise until late October, but apple season begins in August for most parts. We have a pick your own apple orchard, but picking doesn't begin until September, so I will be relying on store bought apples for now. 

Apples are one of my favorite fruits to bake with, because they're so versatile.Last September I mentioned that I partnered with Marzetti to develop a few recipes using their products, and would be sharing them with all of you. 

Well, today is my last post and it's a doozie!!!!  Since fall will be here before we know it I made an easy fall inspired recipe! These Apple Pie Egg Rolls pictured above have been floating around Pinterest for quite some time now and I've been dying to make them. 

I used my own recipe for apple pie filling, and added Marzetti's® Old Fashioned Caramel Dip as a yummy dipping sauce. I think the addition of the caramel dip took these apple dessert rolls over the top!  This recipe is really simple to make. After the apple filling is cooked and cooled then comes the fun part of filling the egg rolls. 

All it takes is a little stuffing, tucking, folding and rolling. Use the guide on the back of the egg roll wrappers for step by step directions on filling and rolling.     

Once the egg roll wrappers are stuffed you can fry or bake them. I prefer to fry them, but use your own preference. I have including baking instructions in the cook's notes at the end of the recipe. 

Look at all that gooey apple goodness! These are the perfect individual sized apple pies. 

Don't forget the caramel dipping sauce.

Prep time: 20 MinCook time: 15 MinTotal time: 35 Min

Ingredients

• 4 apples peeled and chopped
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1/4- cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

2. In a small bowl combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and corn starch.
3. Sprinkle the sugar mixture over the apples.
4. Add the water, vanilla, and dot with butter.
5. Cover and bring the apple mixture to a boil, reduce heat and simmer on low until the apples are tender and the mixture starts to thicken up.
6. Remove from heat and set aside to slightly cool.
7. Place one egg roll wrapper on a clean surface or cutting board.
8. Place 2 -3 tablespoons of apple filling onto each egg roll wrapper.
9. Fold the bottom corner over filling and then fold the side corners in, and roll up egg roll style.
10. Brush some water on the top corner and sides to seal the wrapper before completely rolling up.
11. Continue filling the remainder of the wrappers and set aside.
12. In a large skillet, preheat the oil to 350 degrees. Place the egg rolls seam side down in the skillet. Fry the dessert rolls for 3-5 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown and crispy.

Notes

Baked Version: These egg rolls can also be baked. Place the prepared egg rolls on a greased baking sheet, or use a parchment paper. Bake the egg rolls at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Brush with a little melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and bake for an additional 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve warm.
