Cheeseburger Egg Rolls are the perfect marriage of a juicy cheeseburger and a crispy wonton. They are perfectly crunchy on the outside and filled with a superbly delicious and tender cheesy burger mix. And, let’s not forget the sauce. It is divine. I said it. DIVINE.
The egg rolls are simple to make and there is no deep frying needed. They crisp up in oven without the need to deep fry and the sauce takes mere minutes. It’s a win-win recipe that everyone will love!

how to make egg rolls
I love this egg roll recipe. It’s so much fun to make. It’s such nostalgia in a handheld package. And, they’re easy, delicious, and, allll the things!
the run down:
- Brown the beef with the garlic and onion
- Add mustard, Worcestershire, and cheese to the beef mixture
- Assemble the egg rolls (this is super easy. don’t worry)
- Spray with avocado oil and bake until crispy
- Make the sauce
- Dip the egg rolls in the sauce.
- Devour
This Is Super Important
Because the egg rolls are oven baked, make sure that each one is completely covered (lightly) in the oil. If the egg rolls aren’t they will not turn that beautiful golden brown or get crispy. And, no one, I mean no one, wants a soggy egg roll.
I use avocado oil spray in the recipe, but feel free to use what you have. However, I would recommend something that is more neutral in flavor!

frequently asked questions
Cheeseburger Egg Rolls can be made gluten-free by substituting the egg roll wrappers for rice paper! Check with the package instructions first, but basically you will soak the paper in water to make them pliable. Then simply follow the same instruction as the egg rolls. They can be crisped in the oven or in the air fryer.
Why, yes. Yes, you can! Enter: the lettuce wrap. Just spoon the cheeseburger mixture onto a large leaf of lettuce and drizzle with the sauce. This is a simple and delicious way to watch the extra carbs!
These Cheeseburger Egg Roll can also be deep fried or cooked in an air fryer!
The only thing you would need to change to make this recipe dairy-free is to omit the shredded cheese. Either omit it completely or substitute with your favorite non-dairy cheese of choice.
This is a great recipe to make large batches and freeze for future use. Make the egg rolls, but don’t add the oil and do not cook. Put them in a freezer safe, zip top bag and freeze until you’re ready to eat. When you are ready, thaw, brush with oil, and cook until crispy. Make the sauce while the egg rolls cook!
