Avocado egg rolls are the easy, crowd-pleasing appetizer you did not know you needed. A creamy filling of avocado, feta and lime gets wrapped up and air fried until golden and super crispy, with no deep fryer required.
Avocado Egg Rolls - Air Fried Recipe
Air frying gives you all the crunch of a classic egg roll without a pot of hot oil or the cleanup. The outside turns golden and crackly while the avocado inside stays soft, creamy and full of flavor. Honestly, the filling is so good that you may catch yourself sneaking spoonfuls before it ever reaches a wrapper.
These come together fast, which makes them ideal for game day, parties or a fun snack night at home. Serve them hot with your favorite dip. If you love our Feta Roasted Red Pepper Dip, you will love this!
What are Avocado Egg Rolls?
Avocado egg rolls are crispy, air-fried wrappers stuffed with a mashed avocado mixture seasoned with lime, feta and spices. Our version is made in the air fryer, which keeps them light and crunchy with just a brush of oil.
What is in these Avocado Egg Rolls?
Star Ingredients
- Avocados - ripe avocados mash into the creamy base of the filling, so ripeness really matters.
- Feta (or Queso Fresco) - salty, tangy bites that stand up to the mild avocado.
- Lime and Fresh Veggies - lime juice brightens everything and helps keep the avocado green, while red onion and tomato add freshness.
- Herbs and Spices - parsley or cilantro, garlic powder, cumin and chili flakes season the filling.
- Egg Roll Wrappers - the crispy shell, brushed or sprayed with oil before air frying.

FAQs
Warm them in the air fryer until hot and crisp again. The microwave tends to make the wrappers soft.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
You can prep the onion, tomato and feta ahead of time, but avocado browns quickly. Mash it with the lime juice, wrap and cook the egg rolls on the same day for the best results.
We have not tested freezing. Avocado can turn mushy once thawed, so we recommend enjoying these fresh.
Stick to 2 - 3 spoonfuls of filling per wrapper, wet the edges with water, roll tightly and press to seal.
Queso fresco is a good substitute for the feta.
Press gently near the stem. If it gives slightly, it is ripe. A dent means it is overripe, and if it does not give at all, it is not ready. Do not rely on color alone.
Place it in a brown paper bag with an apple or banana and check it daily, since it can ripen fast. If your avocado ripens before you need it, store it in the fridge.
Yes. Either brush the egg rolls with olive oil or lightly spray both sides with non-stick cooking spray.
