How to Make Spinach & Feta Air Fryer Egg Rolls

1. In a bowl, combine the chopped spinach, feta cheese, cream cheese, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
2. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of the spinach and feta mixture in the center of the wrapper.
3. Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly to form an egg roll. Use a bit of water to seal the edges if needed.
4. Lightly brush or spray the egg rolls with cooking spray or oil to help them crisp up in the air fryer.
5. Place the egg rolls in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overlapping. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
6. Air fry the egg rolls at 375°F (190°C) for about 8-10 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
7. Allow the egg rolls to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them with your favorite dipping sauce.
