Ingredients
  

  • 6 rice paper
  • 2 apples I used cosmic crisp
  • 1/2 cup walnut
  • 4 tablespoon vegan butter
  • 2 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Caster sugar for dusting
  • Avocado oil for cooking

Method
 

  1. Chop the apples into small cubes, discard the cores;
  2. In a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat, add in the apple and cook until they're soft and golden brown;
  3. Add in the cinnamon and maple syrup, stir to mix evenly and cook for another 2 minutes for the syrup to thicken, turn off heat and set aside;
  4. Dip one rice paper in water for 2-3 seconds, lay down on your work surface, and dip another piece, connect the two pieces by overlapping 1/2 inch of their edges;
  5. Add the apple walnut mixture along the longer edge, start rolling up from the side with fillings and roll as tightly as your can until you reach the other end, now you have a long rolled strip with apple fillings inside;
  6. Coil the rolled strip inward and form a swirl shape, repeat with all six rice paper and that'll yield three apple cinnamon rolls;
  7. Heat a small drizzle of oil in a clean nonstick pan over medium high heat, pan fry the rolls for 3-4 minutes on the first side or until golden and bubbly, flip, and fry the other side for 2-3 minutes, monitor them so they don't burn and adjust cooking time depending on your stove;
  8. Serve warm with a dusting of caster sugar, enjoy!
