Yield: 8 egg rolls
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cooking Time: 9 minutes per batch
Total Time: 38 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 teaspoon water
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 egg
• 2½ cups cooked chicken, diced or shredded
• ⅓ cup chopped green onion
• ⅓ cup diced celery
• ⅓ cup buffalo wing sauce
• 8 egg roll wraps
• Oil for misting or cooking spray

Blue Cheese Dip:

• 3 ounces cream cheese, softened
• ⅓ cup blue cheese, crumbled
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
• ¼ cup buttermilk (or sour cream)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Begin by mixing water and cornstarch in a small bowl until fully dissolved. Add the egg, beat well, and set aside.
2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the cooked chicken, chopped green onion, diced celery, and buffalo wing sauce.
3. Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the 8 egg roll wraps, spooning it about ½ inch from one edge.
4. Moisten all edges of each wrap with the beaten egg wash.
5. Fold the short ends of the wraps over the filling, then roll them up tightly and press to seal the edges.
6. Brush the outside of the wraps with the remaining egg wash, then spritz them lightly with oil or cooking spray.
7. Place 4 of the prepared egg rolls in the air fryer basket.
8. Set the air fryer temperature to 390°F and cook the egg rolls for 9 minutes or until the outside is golden brown and crispy.
9. While the egg rolls are cooking, prepare the Blue Cheese Dip. Mash together the softened cream cheese and crumbled blue cheese using a fork.
10. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and buttermilk (or sour cream) until the dip reaches the desired consistency. It should be just thick enough to cling to the egg rolls.
11. Once the first batch of egg rolls is cooked, repeat steps 7 and 8 for the remaining 4 egg rolls.
12. Serve the Buffalo Egg Rolls hot with the prepared Blue Cheese Dip. For an extra kick, offer additional buffalo wing sauce for dipping.
