Instructions

Air Fryer Method (Fastest & Crispiest)

Preheat: Preheat your air fryer to $400° F$ ( $200° C$ ) for 3-5 minutes.
Arrange: Place the frozen spring rolls in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Ensure they are not touching or overlapping to allow for even crisping. Work in batches if necessary.
Air Fry: Cook for 9-10 minutes, flipping the spring rolls halfway through. They are done when deep golden brown and crispy.

Oven-Baked Method (Great for a Crowd)

Preheat: Position a rack in the center of your oven and preheat to $425° F$ ( $220° C$ ). For extra crispy bottoms, place your baking sheet in the oven as it preheats.
Arrange: Place the frozen spring rolls in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet (or on a wire rack set inside the sheet for best results), ensuring they are not touching.
Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes, flipping the spring rolls halfway through the baking time. They should be golden brown, crisp, and sizzling when done.

Notes

General Tip: For an extra layer of crunch and a beautiful golden sheen, lightly spritz the frozen spring rolls with cooking spray or brush with a little oil before cooking.
Air Fryer Success: Preheating the air fryer is key! A hot basket immediately starts crisping the outside. Also, giving each spring roll its own space is crucial for the hot air to circulate freely.
Oven Success: The most important step for oven-baking is to flip the spring rolls halfway through. This ensures both sides get direct heat for a uniform, satisfying crunch. Using a wire rack inside the baking sheet also significantly improves crispiness
