Apple Lumpia

Method

Apple Lumpia Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Apples

    Peel, core, and slice the Granny Smith apples into thin strips. Place them into a mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Mix the Filling

    Add the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice to the apples. Toss together until the apples are evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Lumpia

    Take a lumpia wrapper and place about 2 tablespoons of the apple filling near one edge. Fold the sides over the filling and roll tightly. Seal the edge with a dab of water. Repeat for all wrappers.

Frying and Serving

  1. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 5

    Fry the Lumpia

    Carefully add the lumpia to the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

  3. 6

    Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar

    In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon together.

  4. 7

    Serve

    Sprinkle the fried lumpia with the cinnamon sugar mixture. Serve immediately with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side.
