Essential Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:
- Egg Roll Wrappers: Use fresh wrappers from the refrigerated section for best results; they should be pliable and not dry.
- Cream Cheese: Opt for full-fat cream cheese for a rich texture that blends perfectly with blueberries.
- Fresh Blueberries: Ripe, juicy blueberries are key; choose vibrant ones without any mushy spots.
- Sugar: Adjust the sweetness according to your taste; granulated sugar works best here.
- Cinnamon: A pinch adds warmth and enhances the blueberry flavor beautifully.
- Oil for Frying: Choose vegetable or canola oil which has a high smoke point for frying without burning.

Let’s Make it together
Get ready to embark on a culinary adventure that will have your kitchen smelling irresistible!
Prepare Your Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, fresh blueberries, sugar, and cinnamon. Use a fork to mash lightly until combined but still chunky.
Assemble the Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you. Place about two tablespoons of filling near the bottom corner. Fold the corner over the filling tightly.
Seal it Up!: Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water using your finger. Fold in the sides and roll up tightly like a burrito to seal everything inside.
Heat Your Oil: In a deep skillet or pot, heat about two inches of oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Test with a small piece of dough; it should bubble immediately when added.
Fry Until Golden Brown: Carefully place each egg roll into the hot oil without overcrowding. Fry for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy; drain on paper towels afterward.
Serve Warm: Let them cool slightly before serving; consider dusting them with powdered sugar or serving alongside vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat.
Now you have yourself some crispy and delicious Blueberry Cream Cheese Egg Rolls that will undoubtedly impress friends and family alike! Enjoy their delightful crunch paired with sweet berry goodness today!
