Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 3 cups (444 g) fresh blueberries
  • 12 egg roll wrappers
  • water, for wetting the edges of the egg roll wrappers
  • confectioners' sugar, for topping

Instructions

  • To a medium mixing bowl, add cream cheese, sugar, and lemon juice. Using a hand mixer on medium speed, beat ingredients together until smooth and creamy. Fold in the blueberries.
  • On a clean work surface, set out the egg roll wrappers. Working one at a time, top each wrapper with about 2-3 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture.
  • Use water to wet the edges of the egg roll wrapper. Then, to roll, first, fold up the bottom corner to just over the cream cheese mixture. Roll once to fold in the cream cheese mixture.
  • Second, fold in the right and left corners of the wrapper to the center, lightly pressing to seal. (You may need to add more water to the edges and corners to help the wrapper stay folded.) It should now look like an open envelope.
  • Continue rolling until the filling is fully wrapped inside of the egg roll. Press to seal the edges.
  • Spray or brush the outside of the egg roll with cooking oil.
  • Air Fry at 400°F* for 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown, flipping halfway through. You may need to work in batches, depending on the size of your air fryer.
  • Transfer to a plate to cool.
  • Dust with confectioners' sugar right before serving.

Notes

*Frying in Oil Instructions:
  1. In a large pot, heat up about an inch of oil to 375°F.
  2. Once the oil is hot enough, add the egg rolls 3 to 4 at a time, cooking for 2-4 minutes per side.
  3. Carefully remove the egg rolls from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined paper plate to cool. Sprinkle them with confectioners' sugar before serving. 
*Oven Baking Instructions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Next, place the filled egg roll wrappers onto the lined baking sheet.
  3. Bake for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through baking. Again, don't forget to sprinkle some confectioners' sugar on top before serving!
Please note that baking the egg rolls in the oven will not give you as crispy of a treat when compared to the other methods of cooking. They will end up a little chewier, but still good.
