Homemade Pumpkin Roll Recipe
Ingredients
- For the Cake:
- 1/4 cup of powdered sugar to sprinkle on your towel
- 3/4 cup of flour
- 1/2 tsp of baking powder
- 1/2 tsp of baking soda
- 1/2 tsp of cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp of ground cloves
- 1/4 tsp of salt
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 can of 100% Pure Pumpkin
- Filling
- 8 oz of cream cheese softened
- 1 cup of powdered sugar sifted
- 1 stick of butter softened
- 1 tsp of vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a 15 x 10-inch jelly-roll pan. Line pan with wax or parchment paper and lightly spray with cooking spray. A jelly-roll pan is a baking sheet around these dimensions: 12½ x 17½ by 1 inch
- Sprinkle a thin kitchen towel with powdered sugar (try to use one that will not give off fuzz).
- In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves and salt.
- Using a stand mixer or a hand mixer, in a separate bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar until thick (this takes a bit of time).
- Add the pumpkin to the egg mixture and continue to beat until well mixed.
- Gradually, add in your flour mixture and mix.
- Spread the batter on your prepared pan with paper.
- Bake for 11 to 15 minutes or until top of cake springs back when touched.
- Immediately loosen and turn cake over onto the prepared towel. Carefully peel off paper.
- Roll up the cake and towel together, starting with the narrow end, and cool on a wire rack.
- In a medium sized bowl or stand mixer, beat cream cheese, 1 cup powdered sugar, butter and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Unroll the cake and spread the cream cheese mixture over cake evenly.
- Roll the cake up again and wrap in plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving.
