Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Peach Filling: In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped peaches, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the peaches are softened and the filling has thickened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract and set aside to cool.
Step 2: Assembling the Egg Rolls: Lay out an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the cooled peach filling in the center of the wrapper. Brush the edges with water to help seal. Fold the sides over the filling, then roll it up tightly. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
Step 3: Frying the Egg Rolls: Heat about 3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the egg rolls in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-6 minutes. Remove with tongs and drain on a wire rack over paper towels.
Step 4: Serving and Garnishing: Dust the egg rolls with powdered sugar if desired. Serve warm with a vanilla bean dipping sauce or your choice of accompaniment.
Notes
For a healthier option, consider air frying the egg rolls instead of deep frying.
