Healthy(ish) Mini Apple Pie Bites

Ingredients:

1x Package of Twin Dragon Egg Roll Wrappers

1x Apple (I like using honey crisp or Granny Smith)

1-2 TBS Coconut Sugar

1 TBS Coconut Oil

1 tsp Vanilla Extract

2 tsp Ground Cinnamon

1/4 tsp Ground Cardamom

Pinch of Salt (I used Himalayan Pink Salt)

4-5 TBS Avocado Oil (or any high smoke point oil, may need more depending on size of pot)

Directions:

Cut Apple into small bite size pieces (if you’re familiar with the term “diced” then do that). In a medium sized sauce pan, place cut apples & coconut oil in pan and heat over medium heat for 5-7 minutes or until they start to soften. Once softened a bit, add in coconut sugar, cinnamon, cardamom and salt. Cook stirring occasionally for another 3-5 minutes. Once the liquid starts to thicken, take off the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

While your apple mixture is set to the side, on a cutting board take 1 sheet of Twin Dragon Egg Roll Wrapper & cut into 4 smaller but equal sized squares (cutting in half lengthwise down the center than that sheet in half once more. Place about 1 tablespoon of apple mixture in the center of the wrapper & wrap egg roll as usual (just much smaller so work slowly and carefully if you’re new to this!). And before closing up the top, use your finger to place a small amount of water at the corner and then wrap over to seal the egg roll shut.

Once all wrapped and sealed, in a small saucepan, place avocado oil just enough to cover the bottom & so that when the egg rolls are placed in the pan, they’re covered about halfway. Heat oil to about 325 F (can set your stove top to medium/high heat) and once hot, place egg rolls in the pan seam side down. Fry on one side for 1-2 minutes then flip. You may need to adjust the heat accordingly & make sure all sides are cooked. Once done cooking, carefully take the egg rolls out of the pan and let some of the excess oil drain off onto a paper towel lined plate.

Serve hot & top with more cinnamon/coconut sugar before serving!
