Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 sheets Gluten-free rice paper wrappers
- 2 medium Apples
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 cups Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
Instructions
Peel and core the apples, then dice them into small pieces.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, combine the diced apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon. Stir occasionally until the apples have softened, about 5-7 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Add the slurry to the apple mixture and cook until thickened, about 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the mixture to cool.
Prepare a flat working surface and fill a shallow dish with warm water.
Dip a rice paper wrapper in the warm water for about 10-15 seconds until soft and pliable. Lay the softened wrapper on the flat surface.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the prepared apple filling onto the center of the wrapper.
Fold the bottom edge of the wrapper over the filling, followed by folding the sides in, and then roll it up tightly to form a small log. Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully place a few rolls at a time into the hot oil, frying them until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the rolls from the oil and drain them on a plate lined with paper towels.
Once slightly cooled, dust the rolls generously with powdered sugar.
Serve warm and enjoy the crispy, sweet goodness!
