Written by Danielle Fantasia | Nov 21, 2025 1:00:01 PM

Thanksgiving might come just once a year, but that doesn’t mean those classic flavors can’t make an appearance on your menu all season long! Imagine the warmth of roasted turkey, savory stuffing, and tangy cranberry sauce all wrapped up in a crispy, golden shell — that’s exactly what you’ll get with our Thanksgiving Eggrolls.

Made easy with the AutoFry®, these handheld holiday bites bring the comfort of Thanksgiving dinner into a fun, portable, and profitable form. Whether you’re offering them as a seasonal LTO, appetizer special, or even part of a grab-and-go snack menu, this recipe is sure to be a customer favorite.

What You’ll Need

  • Egg roll wrappers

  • Sliced roasted turkey 

  • Premade stuffing

  • Shredded white cheddar cheese

  • Cranberry sauce

  • Gravy, for dipping

  • Water, for sealing the wrappers

How to Make Them

  1. Prepare your filling:
    In a mixing bowl, gently combine sliced turkey, a scoop of stuffing, and shredded white cheddar. Add a small spoonful of cranberry sauce to balance the savory flavors with a touch of sweetness.

  2. Assemble your eggrolls:

    • Lay out an egg roll wrapper in a diamond shape.

    • Spoon 2–3 tablespoons of filling into the center.

    • Fold in the sides, then roll tightly from bottom to top, sealing the edge with a dab of water.

  3. Fry to perfection:

    • Preheat your AutoFry to 355°F.

    • Place eggrolls in the food entry chute of the AutoFry 

    • Enter a cook time of 3 minutes and 30 seconds.

    • When finished they will automatically dispense from the exit chute.

  4. Serve with gravy:

    • Plate your eggrolls with a side of warm gravy for dipping.
