5-Ingredient Air Fryer Cheeseburger Egg Rolls (Easy Homemade Recipe)

Oh yes! That sounds like a fun, easy twist on cheeseburgers — crispy egg rolls with all the flavor but less oil than deep-frying. Here’s a simple 5-ingredient air fryer recipe breakdown:

🍔 Ingredients (5 main ones)

1. Ground beef – about ½ lb (225 g)

2. Cheddar cheese – shredded, ~½ cup

3. Egg roll wrappers – ~6–8

4. Ketchup or burger sauce – a few tablespoons

5. Optional: diced onions or pickles (counts as flavor, not required if sticking strictly to 5 ingredients)

👩‍🍳 Quick Method

1. Cook the beef

   • Brown ground beef in a skillet

   • Drain excess fat

   • Stir in ketchup or sauce

2. Assemble the egg rolls

   • Place 2–3 tbsp beef mixture in each wrapper

   • Add a sprinkle of shredded cheddar

   • Roll tightly and seal edges with water

3. Air fry

   • Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C)

   • Spray or brush egg rolls lightly with oil

   • Cook 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy

4. Serve

   • Optional: with more ketchup, mustard, or a simple dipping sauce

⚡ Tips for Success

• Don’t overfill the wrappers; they’ll burst

• Lightly spray oil for that golden crisp without deep-frying

• Cheddar can be swapped for American cheese or pepper jack for a twist

If you want, I can also give a mini version for 2–3 bites — perfect for a quick snack or party appetizer.
