Here’s a fun, crispy, and creamy dessert recipe — Air Fryer Cherry Cheesecake Egg Rolls! 🍒🥮✨
They combine creamy cheesecake filling and sweet cherry pie filling inside a golden, crispy shell — all made lighter in the air fryer!
🧾 Ingredients
For the filling:
-
8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
-
¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
1 cup cherry pie filling (or any pie filling you love!)
For the wrappers:
-
10–12 egg roll wrappers
-
1 egg, beaten (for sealing)
-
Cooking spray or light oil for brushing
Optional toppings:
-
Powdered sugar (for dusting)
-
Melted white or dark chocolate for drizzling
👩🍳 Instructions
-
Make the cheesecake filling:
-
In a bowl, beat together cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
-
-
Assemble the egg rolls:
-
Lay one egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner pointing toward you (diamond shape).
-
Spoon 1 tablespoon of cheesecake filling and 1 tablespoon of cherry pie filling into the center.
-
Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, fold in the sides, and roll tightly toward the top corner.
-
Brush the top corner with a little beaten egg to seal.
-
Repeat with remaining wrappers.
-
-
Air fry:
-
Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
-
Lightly spray the basket with oil.
-
Place egg rolls in a single layer (don’t overcrowd).
-
Lightly spray or brush the tops with oil.
-
Air fry for 6–8 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crisp.
-
-
Cool and serve:
-
Let them cool a few minutes — the filling will be hot!
-
Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate if desired.
-
🍒 Tips & Variations
-
You can swap cherry for blueberry, strawberry, or apple pie filling.
-
Want extra crunch? Sprinkle cinnamon sugar on the wrappers before air frying.
-
For a richer cheesecake flavor, mix in a spoonful of sour cream with the cream cheese.
-
These are best eaten warm, but leftovers can be reheated in the air fryer for a few minutes to re-crisp.
🍨 Serving Ideas
Serve with:
-
Whipped cream
-
Vanilla ice cream
-
Or a drizzle of warm cherry syrup from the pie filling
Would you like me to include an oven-baked version of this recipe (great if you don’t have an air fryer)?
