Description

These easy healthy Air Fryer Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls are made with a delicious buffalo sauce, shredded chicken and cream cheese filling recipe! Wrapped up with egg or spring roll wrappers and air fried to crispy perfection! A great appetiser or snack!

 

Ingredients

  • Spring roll or egg roll wrappers – 16 x wrappers (8 x8 inches)*
  • Cooked shredded chicken – 2 Cups / 180g
  • Buffalo wings sauce – ½ Cup / 125ml (I use Franks wings hot sauce)
  • Cream cheese – 1/3 Cup / 70g 
  • Dried Parsley – ½ teaspoon
  • Sliced Spring onions / Green onions – ¼ cup / 15g
  • Grated mozzarella cheese – ½ cup / 55g
  • Eggs – 2 x whisked (for the egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Prep: Preheat the air fryer 

     

  2. Making the buffalo chicken filling: Mix the shredded chicken, spring onions/green onions, grated mozzarella, cream cheese and dried parsley.

     

  3. Preparing the egg rolls:On a clean surface place the spring/egg roll wrapper down in a diamond shape, add 1 x tablespoon to the corner of the wrapper leaving a little space from the edge. Then fold over the wrapper once just over the top of filling and tuck in slightly. Grab the right- and left-hand side of the wrapper to create an envelope shape. Then roll the bottom of the egg roll upwards, just before you reach the end of the envelope shape brush the edges of the wrapper with egg wash and continue to roll to seal the egg rolls. Place the eggroll on a greased tray and cover with a damp kitchen towel whilst preparing the other remaining eggs rolls. Take your time and ensure you are wrapping tightly throughout the process to avoid air bubbles which will unravel the egg rolls whilst air frying. 

     

  4. Air frying the egg rolls: lightly spray or brush the air fryer basket / tray with oil. Place the spring roll into the air fryer, sealed side down first. If using spring roll wrappers brush the top and sides of the rolls with the egg wash or if using slightly thicker egg roll wrappers brush with just oil. Air fry for 9 minutes at 200c /395-400f, turning halfway through cooking and repeat the egg wash /oil brushing process on the other side of the roll.

     

  5. Plating: Serve the egg rolls with blue cheese dip or extra buffalo sauce and celery sticks to Garnish 

Notes

Cut larger spring roll or egg roll wrappers to size if you can’t find 8 x 8 wrappers.

Do not overstuff the egg rolls as they are more likely to burst, less is more

For this recipe I used Spring Home Tyj Spring Roll Pastry. If you used thicker egg roll wrappers brush them with oil just before air frying not egg. The egg roll wrappers might need extra time to air fry as they are thicker than spring roll wrappers
