I have had this recipe for quite a while. It is very addicting. To make this healthier, I have altered this by using 1/2 cup of sugar substitute instead of sugar and it still is very good.

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2/3 cup pumpkin
  • 3/4 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg, ground
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • FILLING
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

How To Make pumpkin roll

  • Step 1
    Beat the eggs, with whip attachment, for a good 5 minutes until they are thick. While the eggs are beating, sift the flour and add the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt to it. After beating the eggs, stir in the pumpkin, flour mixture and sugar with a spoon.
  • Step 2
    Line a 10 x 15 ( use one size smaller) sheet pan with parchment paper or waxed paper(make sure you spray the lining with a pan spray) Spread the pumpkin mixture in pan and bake at 375 for 15 minutes.
  • Step 3
    While the cake is baking, prepare a linen kitchen towel (one that is not terrycloth) by sprinkling powdered sugar on it. As soon as the cake comes out of the oven invert it onto the kitchen towel, carefully remove the parchment paper, and roll it from the short side, towel and all.
  • Step 4
    While the roll is cooling, prepare the filling. In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and cream cheese together. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla.
  • Step 5
    Unroll the cake, reserve about 1/4 cup of the filling then spread the filling over the cake. Roll up the pumpkin roll again, put plastic wrap around it and refrigerate all of it( just fyi-do not roll the towel in it!). Just before serving, ice the top of the cake and sprinkle nuts on icing. Slice and serve.
