Sharing is caring!

I admit this is a little cheater recipe because these Air Fryer Pork Egg Rolls are not made just in the air fryer. You will need to brown the meat over the stove, but the rest of the process is made just in the air fryer!

How do you cook store bought Frozen Egg Rolls in the Air Fryer?

If….you don’t want to go to all the work for these Air Fryer Pork Egg Rolls, I discovered the BEST egg rolls to make in the air fryer are the ones from Dollar Tree. I know it’s hard to believe, but they are really big and really tasty.

You can find them in the frozen department. They have several different flavors — pork, chicken, shrimp, veggie, and even lobster. We love the pork and chicken ones best. I cook 4 at a time in my air fryer on 400 F degrees for 15 minutes, and they are perfect every time.
