Description

A delicious pumpkin roll filled with cream cheese frosting, perfect for fall!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2/3 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Powdered sugar for dusting
  • Sprigs of thyme or cinnamon sticks for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and grease lightly.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg.
  3. In a large bowl, beat eggs and sugar on high speed for 5 minutes until thick and pale. Add pumpkin and vanilla.
  4. Fold dry ingredients into wet mixture just until combined.
  5. Pour into prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake 13–15 minutes or until cake springs back when touched.
  7. Turn out onto a powdered sugar-dusted towel, peel off parchment, and roll with the towel from the short side. Cool completely.
  8. Beat cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth for the filling.
  9. Unroll cake, spread filling evenly, then re-roll and wrap in plastic wrap.
  10. Chill for at least 1 hour before slicing. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

  • For easier rolling, make sure to dust the towel with powdered sugar before placing the pumpkin cake on it.
  • You can add nuts or chocolate chips to the filling for extra flavor.
