- 2 tbsp water for sealing and slurry

Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add apples, both sugars, 1.25 tsp cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Cook until tender, 5–7 minutes.
- Stir in lemon juice. Mix cornstarch with 1 tbsp water, then stir into apples. Simmer to thicken. Cool.
- Combine 0.33 cup sugar with 1 tsp cinnamon in a shallow bowl for coating.
- Lay a wrapper like a diamond. Spoon filling near the lower corner.
- Moisten edges with water. Fold sides over the filling, then roll tightly to seal. Repeat.
- Heat oil in a deep pot to 350°F.
- Fry rolls in batches until deeply golden, 2–3 minutes, turning once. Drain on a rack.
- Toss warm rolls in cinnamon sugar. Serve hot with caramel for dipping.
Notes
Air fryer option: Spray rolled egg rolls lightly with oil and air-fry at 380°F for 8–10 minutes, turning once. To freeze, arrange uncooked rolls on a sheet pan until solid, then store in a freezer bag for up to 2 months; fry or air-fry from frozen, adding 2–3 minutes.
