Easy Air Fryer Cheeseburger Egg rolls

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground beef: Choose a lean variety for less grease.
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped: Adds flavor and texture.
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese: Gives the classic cheeseburger taste.
  • 1/2 cup diced pickles (optional): Adds a tangy crunch.
  • 1/4 cup ketchup: For sweetness and moisture.
  • 2 tablespoons mustard: Adds a bit of tanginess.
  • Salt and pepper to taste: To season the mixture.
  • 1 package egg roll wrappers: Usually found in the refrigerated section of grocery stores.
  • Cooking spray: For crisping the egg rolls in the air fryer.

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Beef:
    • Place a skillet over medium heat.
    • Add the ground beef and chopped onion to the skillet.
    • Cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned and the onions are soft and translucent. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
    • Drain any excess fat from the skillet and transfer the beef and onion mixture to a large bowl.
  2. Mix the Filling:
    • To the bowl with the cooked beef and onions, add the shredded cheddar cheese, diced pickles (if using), ketchup, mustard, salt, and pepper.
    • Stir everything together until all the ingredients are well combined and the cheese starts to melt slightly from the heat of the beef.
  3. Prepare the Egg Rolls:
    • Take an egg roll wrapper and lay it out on a clean, flat surface with one corner pointing towards you, so it looks like a diamond.
    • Place about 2 tablespoons of the cheeseburger filling in the center of the wrapper.
    • Fold the bottom corner up over the filling.
    • Fold in the two side corners snugly against the filling.
    • Roll the wrapper tightly towards the top corner, like a burrito, ensuring it is well-sealed. Use a dab of water to moisten the top corner and seal the egg roll.
    • Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling until all the mixture is used.
  4. Preheat the Air Fryer:
    • Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat for about 5 minutes.
  5. Cook the Egg Rolls:
    • Lightly spray the egg rolls on all sides with cooking spray. This helps them get crispy and golden brown.
    • Place the egg rolls in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure they are not touching each other to allow for even cooking.
    • Cook the egg rolls for 10-12 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time to ensure they crisp up evenly on all sides.
    • They should be golden brown and crispy when done.
  6. Serve:
    • Carefully remove the egg rolls from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.
    • Serve them with additional ketchup, mustard, or your favorite dipping sauces for an extra burst of flavor.

These Air Fryer Cheeseburger Egg Rolls are perfect as an appetizer, snack, or even a fun dinner option. Enjoy the combination of a cheeseburger’s familiar flavors in a crispy, handheld package!
