  • Spray the top of the egg roll with the oil spray
  • Repeat that process about 40 more times - (you'll be an expert!)
  • Bake at 375 degrees for about 20 minutes or until the outside of the wrappers are golden brown (oven times may vary)

Notes

  • You can double sauce ingredients
  • Storing - you can freeze baked egg rolls. To reheat, warm the oven to 350 degrees. Heat for 20 minutes

Frying:

  • My mom used to fry these in a wok using peanut oil. They were so delicious that way. If you fry them, make sure to have paper towel set out to soak up any extra grease on the egg roll
