Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- 2 cups shredded chicken cooked
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- ½ cup buffalo sauce
- ½ cup blue cheese crumbles
- ⅓ cup shredded carrots
- ⅓ cup green onions sliced
- cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
- In a mixing bowl, prepare buffalo chicken filling by combining softened cream cheese and buffalo sauce. To the same bowl, add shredded chicken, blue cheese, carrots, and green onions. Mix well.
- Add 2 tablespoons of the buffalo chicken mixture to an egg roll wrapper and tightly form an egg roll. Repeat until all the filling is used. (Note: see post above for a step-by-step instructions with photos on how to roll an egg roll).
- Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray and place the buffalo chicken egg rolls in a single layer. Spray the top of the egg rolls with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt.
- Air fry egg rolls for 6 minutes, flip, then cook an additional 6 minutes until they are lightly golden brown in color and have a crispy exterior.
Notes
- Depending on how much of the buffalo chicken filling you add to each egg roll, you my get slightly more or less than 8 egg rolls.
- Softened cream cheese will be easier to blend. Leave it on the counter at room temperature for about an hour before making this recipe.
- Fresh egg roll wrappers are best to prevent cracking when rolling.
- Be careful not to overcrowd the air fryer basket so you cook crispy egg rolls. You may have to air fry egg rolls in multiple batches.
- The buffalo chicken filling is hot right out of the air fryer. Let egg rolls sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Bake in the oven at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
