EGG ROLLS
- Leftover Cornbread Dressing (best if it is refrigerated/cold)
- Egg Roll Wrappers
- 1 cup Water
- 1 Egg
- Raw Sugar (optional)
CRANBERRY DIPPING SAUCE
- 1 can Cranberry Sauce
- 1 cup Orange Juice
Step by Step How to Make These Easy Egg Rolls
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Wrap a baking sheet with foil then grease with cooking spray or butter. Take out your leftover dressing or stuffing. Get a small cup of water and crack and beat an egg in another small cup.
Step 2
On a working surface such as a cutting board or countertop, take an egg roll wrapper with a corner pointing upwards. With your basting brush, spread water along the perimeter of the wrapper. Then, place about two tablespoons of dressing into the center of the wrapper. Fold up the bottom point first. Then simultaneously, fold both side points inward. They should stick together. You’ll then roll it upwards until the top corner is attached to the roll. Place on the baking sheet with the flap downward. Repeat this process until you use all of your dressing or wrappers.
Step 3
Once all of your wrappers are folded and onto the baking sheet, taking your brush and put an egg wash over the top of each roll. Then, if you wish, sprinkle a little raw sugar in top of the rolls as well. Bake at 400 degrees for about 10-12 minutes or until they turn a nice golden brown.
And the Cranberry Dipping Sauce…
The cranberry dipping sauce is so easy to make as well. It’s literally just a can of cranberry sauce and orange just mixed together. Brought to a boil to thicken and come together.
