Ingredients
  

Apple Pie Crust Dough

  • 5 medium apples
  • tablespoons cinnamon powder
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 12 pieces lumpia wrapper
  • 1 cup cooking oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin strips or small cubes. Toss the apples in a mixture of sugar and cinnamon. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes. It will produce some moisture. Drain the liquid moisture and reserve it to make caramel sauce.
  • Separate lumpia wrappers carefully. Be sure to thaw them if they are frozen. Cover them with a cloth to avoid drying.
  • Take a spring roll wrapper in a diamond shape and put some apple mixture about 1-2 tablespoons to the lower end of the wrapper. Fold the left and right sides towards the middle and keep rolling up. Wet the top edge of the wrapper with a dab of water to seal completely. Repeat the process until everything is finished.
  • Heat oil in a frying pan or deep fryer and fry the spring rolls until they are golden brown and crispy on each side.
  • Pour the reserved apple juice moisture from the apples into a pan. Let it simmer until it slightly thickens like a syrup. It should turn in an amber color.
  • Coat the fried apple spring roll with the caramel syrup. Serve while it is slightly warm and crispy.

Notes

Recipe Notes:

  • Maintain consistent medium-high heat when frying. This will help to achieve crispiness and prevent the Apple Pie Spring Roll from absorbing too much oil.
  • Make sure you're using fresh, good-quality wrappers, and handle them carefully to prevent tearing or holes that could let oil inside the apple filling.
  • Store the leftover fried apple cinnamon turon in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, you can use an air-fryer or pan-fry them in hot oil until crispy and heated thoroughly.
