Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment or a nonstick mat.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the black beans, corn, diced bell pepper, diced onion, melted cheese, chili powder, and cumin.
  • Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the mixture onto an eggroll wrapper, placed as a diamond in front of you.
  • Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, then fold the sides in, and roll tightly to the top. Seal the edges with a dab of water.
  • Place the rolled eggrolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, giving them a little space to crisp evenly.

Cooking

  • Bake for about 20 minutes, turning once halfway through until golden and crispy.
  • Serve hot with guacamole, salsa, or ranch dip. Drizzle with chipotle sauce or top with sliced jalapeños if desired.

Notes

Keep wrappers covered with a damp towel to prevent drying. Don't overfill, as two tablespoons is the sweet spot. If air-frying, cook at 375°F for 8-10 mins until crispy.
