Ingredients:

For the Peach Cobbler Filling:

• 2 cups peeled and diced fresh or canned peaches (drained)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Egg Roll Wrappers:

• 12 egg roll wrappers
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for dusting)
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for dusting)
• 2 tablespoons melted butter (for brushing)
• Vegetable oil for frying

For Serving (Optional):

• Vanilla ice cream
• Caramel sauce
• Powdered sugar

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Peach Cobbler Filling

1. In a saucepan, combine the diced peaches, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, cornstarch, and lemon juice.
2. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the peaches are tender, and the sauce has thickened. This should take about 10-12 minutes.
3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the peach cobbler filling to cool.

Step 2: Assemble the Egg Rolls

1. Lay out an egg roll wrapper with one corner pointing towards you (diamond shape).
2. Place a spoonful of the cooled peach cobbler filling in the center of the wrapper.
3. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll it up tightly, sealing the top corner with a dab of water. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 3: Fry the Egg Rolls

1. In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
2. Carefully place the peach cobbler egg rolls into the hot oil, seam-side down, and fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
3. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried egg rolls from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 4: Dust and Brush

1. While the egg rolls are still warm, brush them with melted butter and dust them with a mixture of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

1. Serve the peach cobbler egg rolls warm as a delightful dessert. They’re perfect on their own or paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce for extra indulgence. You can also dust them with powdered sugar for an elegant touch.
