(Healthy Copycat Cheesecake Factory Delight)
If you’ve tried Cheesecake Factory’s avocado egg rolls, you know how addictively delicious they are!
These crispy appetizers feature creamy avocado, crispy sweet onions, and a hint of cilantro.

Air frying uses minimal oil, cutting down on calories while giving you that same satisfying crunch.
Plus, air fryers are incredibly fast and convenient. This air fryer avocado egg roll recipe is ideal for an appetizer, snack, or light meal, and they’re perfect for parties and gatherings.

How to Make Air Fryer Avocado Egg Rolls
Step 1: Prepare the Filling
Start by making the filling, which is super simple and full of flavor:
1. Slice the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a bowl.
2. Mash the avocado gently with a fork or thinly chop them, keeping some texture rather than making it completely smooth.
3. Add the thinly chopped red onion, cilantro, and lime juice to the bowl.
4. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. If you like a kick, add the jalapeño and garlic powder at this stage (if using – optional).
5. Mix everything well and set aside.

Step 2: Assemble the Egg Rolls
Assembling the egg rolls might seem tricky, but it’s easy once you get the hang of it:
1. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, with one corner pointing toward you, creating a diamond shape.
2. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the avocado mixture onto the wrapper, near the corner closest to you.
3. Fold the corner nearest to you over the filling, then fold the side corners toward the center, enclosing the filling like an envelope.
4. Roll the wrapper away from you, sealing the top corner with a dab of water to help it stick.
Step 3: Air Fry the Avocado Egg Rolls
Air frying gives these avocado egg rolls a beautiful, crispy shell without any excess oil:
1. Preheat your air fryer to 300°F (148°C) for about 5 minutes.
2. Place the egg rolls in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Spray them lightly with olive oil spray for a golden finish.
3. Air fry at 300°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 4: Bake the Avocado Egg Rolls
-
- Preheat the oven to 300°F (148°C) for about 3 minutes.
- Place the egg rolls in a single layer on an oven-safe tray. Spray them lightly with olive oil for a golden finish.
- Bake at 300°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Tip: Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary for the crispiest results.
Sweet Cilantro Dipping Sauces for Rolls:

Storage: If you have leftovers, store the egg rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F (180°C) for about 3-5 minutes to regain crispiness.
