Air Fryer Turkey and Bacon Egg Rolls
Finally I bit the bullet and decided to try out a recipe for air fryer turkey and bacon egg rolls.
I’m a girl who LOVES her deep fried foods, like a lot!
I do love my air fryer and I feel it does a great job of creating crispy breaded chicken and shrimp.
However, I was VERY skeptical about trying egg rolls in my air fryer.
They were quite the hit with my family, and they get two thumbs up in my opinion!
The texture is much different than a deep fried egg roll, but they were just as crunchy and delicious as I hoped đŸ™‚
My husband and I go to a restaurant that has something called turkey twisters.
So those are the inspiration behind these Air Fryer Turkey and Bacon Egg Rolls.
Wrapping the egg rolls is the only real work involved in these.
A slice or two of turkey goes in the center. I rolled mine so they fit nicely in the center.
Now I really wanted to do two half slices of bacon, but after several failed attempts I realized only one half slice would work.
The bacon kept poking holes in the wrappers whenever I tried two.
Then a slice of pepperjack cheese cut into fourths goes right over top.
Trace the edges with some water, I just dipped my finger in some water and wet the edges.
Then fold in the sides, roll the top part over the filling, and another roll to look just like this đŸ™‚
Place them in a single layer in the air fryer basket and give them a light spray of olive oil cooking spray.
Set the air fryer to 400 degrees for 6 minutes, flip them and give another spray of oil.
Then another 6 to 7 minutes on 400 degrees.
I had two that had some cheese spillage, but the rest turned out beautifully!
Serve your air fryer turkey and bacon egg rolls with any dipping sauce of choice.
We went with honey mustard.
I can’t wait to try more egg roll recipes in the air fryer now!
