Air fried or deep fried, these Creamy Spinach Artichoke Egg Rolls are the perfect appetizer! They're crispy, creamy, and mouthwatering delicious!
Now that football season is upon us, I wanted to share one of my FAVORITE appetizers with you....Spinach Artichoke Egg Rolls! Yes, you read that right...your favorite creamy spinach artichoke dip stuffed into an egg roll wrapper and quickly friend into ooey-gooey egg roll perfection. They are the perfect game day snack or appetizer!
I just love the spinach artichoke combo which I've featured in recipes such as this Spinach Artichoke Stuffed Bread, Instant Pot Spinach Artichoke Dip, and Spinach and Artichoke Pizza
Now, I'm seriously telling you that these Spinach Artichoke Egg Rolls are the BEST game day appetizer. They're creamy, cheesy, and full of delicious spinach artichoke dip that everyone goes insane over. It's SUPER easy wrapping this dip up in the egg roll shell and quickly frying it. Not into frying the egg rolls, I will share how to bake and air fry them as well.
How to make Spinach Artichoke Egg Rolls:
**scroll down for full ingredients list and printable directions**
- First get the ingredients together and make the dip. Set it aside.
- Next, roll up the dip in the center of an egg roll wrapper (see how to video below), sing water to seal the edges.
- Then pop these into about 2 inches of vegetable oil and fry a few minutes per side, or until golden brown.
- I like to fry about 4 at a time because they need room to cook. You definitely don't want to crowd the pot and risk the egg rolls busting open
- Let them rest on a cutting board for a few minutes while frying up the rest of the Spinach Artichoke Egg Rolls. You could also line it with paper towels to absorb the little bit of grease. Then I just pile them up on a serving dish and sprinkle some parmesan cheese and parsley over the top! Voila!
How to Air Fry the Egg Rolls:
- Spray olive oil on the basket of your Air fryer using a Misto or oil sprayer (not Pam). Place the egg rolls in the air fryer basket, seam side down, with some space around each of them.
- Lightly spray the tops of the spinach artichoke egg rolls with the oil spray.
- Set the Air fryer to 360 degrees for 7 minutes. Flip, lightly spray with oil, and cook for 2 minutes.
- Carefully remove the egg rolls, and let them sit for 5 minutes before cutting them in half.
Can I make ahead/freeze these egg rolls?
Yes and yes. I do think they are best made fresh, however:
- To make ahead (say the night before you need them), I recommend making them but NOT frying them until you need them. Store them covered tightly in the refrigerator. When ready to fry, make sure the seams are still sealed; add water to seal if necessary.
- To freeze: I recommend making them but NOT frying them. Wrap them tightly with plastic wrap and freeze. Allow to defrost overnight in the fridge, then fry or air according to below directions.
Serve these Spinach Artichoke Egg Rolls on game day, at a pot luck, girls night out alongside a delicious cocktail, birthday party, or whenever!

Allyson

Crystal @ Mommyisawino.com
These look amazing. I just might serve these up at my holiday get together.
Laura
Can you make these ahead of time and reheat them?
Allyson
Laura- I have't tried that so I am not 100% sure...but I THINK it would be okay. If you could, I'd probably recommend making them but not frying them. Then frying when you are ready to eat. Let me know..
