These easy Apple Pie Egg Rolls are a quick and easy dessert perfect after any meal. One of my all- time most popular recipes and for a good reason! They are reminiscent the fried pies McDonalds used to serve back in the day.
I saw one of the Food Network stars making apple chimichangas and thought I had to have some for myself. I bought flour tortillas and apples, and then I used the flour tortillas for tacos.
Still wanting some kind of fried apple pie dessert I used the egg roll wrappers I had in place of the flour tortillas. I know, I know frying dessert just makes it more sinful, but these are totally delicious.
Maybe they would be good baked, but not as good as fried. I was sad the day McDonald’s stopped frying their apple pies, but I recently discovered KFC still fries theirs and Whattaburger makes a darn good fried apple pie!
I served these up with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce, and it was heaven!
UPDATE: I did an interview with the Casper Star-Tribune newspaper and they made a video of me making these Apple Pie Egg Rolls! Watch it!
