Ingredients
Avocado Filling
- 3 avocados, diced
- 1/4 cup red onion, diced
- 1 Roma tomato, diced
- 3 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Egg Rolls
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- Olive oil spray, for air fryer basket and egg rolls
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, mash the diced avocados to your desired consistency. Stir in the diced red onion, diced Roma tomato, chopped cilantro, garlic powder, lime juice, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
- Assemble the Egg Rolls: Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the avocado mixture onto the center of the wrapper. Using your finger, lightly wet the edges of the wrapper with water to help seal it.
- Roll the Egg Rolls: Fold the bottom edge of the wrapper tightly over the filling, then fold in the sides. Continue rolling the wrapper up tightly and press the edges to seal completely. Repeat this process until all eight egg rolls are assembled.
- Prepare the Air Fryer: Spray the air fryer basket lightly with olive oil spray to prevent sticking. Arrange the egg rolls in the basket in a single layer without overcrowding. Lightly spray the tops of the egg rolls with olive oil spray for a crispy finish.
- Cook the Egg Rolls: Set the air fryer temperature to 400°F (204°C). Cook the egg rolls for 6 minutes, then carefully flip them over and cook for an additional 6 minutes or until golden brown and crispy on all sides.
Notes
- Ensure the egg roll wrappers are sealed well to prevent filling from leaking during cooking.
- You can serve these egg rolls with your favorite dipping sauce such as sweet chili sauce or a creamy ranch dip.
- If you do not have olive oil spray, lightly brush the egg rolls with olive oil before air frying.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chopped jalapeño to the avocado filling.
- Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket to allow proper air circulation for even cooking.
