If you thought making a pumpkin roll was complicated, think again! With a few simple steps, you can whip up this classic dessert in your very own kitchen. So, let’s get started!
Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup pumpkin puree
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Add the pumpkin puree and mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared jelly roll pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
- While the cake is baking, prepare a clean kitchen towel by dusting it generously with powdered sugar.
- Remove the cake from the oven and immediately turn it out onto the prepared towel.
- Gently roll the cake and towel together, starting from one short end. Allow the rolled cake to cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the cream cheese filling. In a bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Once the cake has cooled, carefully unroll it and spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the cake.
- Roll the cake back up, this time without the towel, and transfer it to a serving platter.
- Cover the pumpkin roll with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
- When you’re ready to enjoy, slice the pumpkin roll into thick, luscious pieces and savor every bite!
