If you want to go all out you can make homemade egg roll wrappers but honestly I wouldn’t even attempt that. Store bought is my style.

What are egg roll wrappers made of?

Flour, water, egg and salt is what is in the cooked version and rather simple to make. You can also find these ready made in the refrigerator section of most grocery stores.

What can I use instead of egg roll wrappers?

If you absolutely cannot find any, or make them yourself you could use phyllo dough. This is usually bought frozen and once defrosted has layers of thin sheets of paper thin edible sheets.

I have used this to make our air fryer baked brie.
