Description

Indulge in this elegant Pumpkin Roll, featuring a moist pumpkin cake swirled with creamy, tangy filling—perfect for fall festivities and cozy gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter (softened)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a jelly roll pan (15×10 inches) with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In another large bowl, beat eggs and sugar until thickened. Mix in pumpkin puree and vanilla extract.
  4. Gently fold in the dry ingredients until well combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 15 minutes or until it springs back when touched lightly.
  6. In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and butter until creamy. Gradually mix in powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth.
  7. Once the cake is baked, let it cool slightly before transferring to a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Carefully peel off the parchment paper and roll up tightly from one end while still warm.
  8. Unroll the cake gently, spread the cream cheese filling evenly over it, and roll it up again without the towel.
  9. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour before slicing. Dust with additional powdered sugar before serving.
