Two Peas and Their Pod: Pumpkin Cake Roll Recipe

Pumpkin Cake Roll Recipe



Every fall I make pumpkin rolls. They are always a hit and so easy to do. I usually make a couple at a time and keep them in the freezer. You can pull them out for a party, dinner, or a sweet treat! The cake is moist and the cream cheese filling is delicious, plus the spirals look cool! Give this recipe a go! I am sure it will be a fall favorite.

Pumpkin Cake Roll

(Print Recipe)

3 eggs
1 cup sugar

2/3 cup canned pumpkin
1 tsp lemon juice
¾ cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsps cinnamon
1 tsp ginger
½ tsp nutmeg
½ tsp salt

Filling
1 cup powder
ed sugar
1 8 oz. package of cream cheese
4 T butter
½ tsp vanilla

Beat eggs and sugar together. Add pumpkin and lemon juice and mix together. In a separate bowl sift together flour, baking powder, spices, and salt. Fold into pumpkin mixture.

Line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Spray with cooking spray. Spread pumpkin mixture evenly in pan. Bake at 375 degrees for about 15 minutes. Turn out immediately onto a clean dishtowel that has been sprinkled with powdered sugar. Remove the parchment paper. Sprinkle more powdered sugar on top of cake. Start at one end, carefully rolling towel and cake together. Cool on countertop or in fridge.

Combine 1 cup powdered sugar, cream cheese, and butter, and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Gently unroll cake, remove the towel. Spread filling evenly over cake. Roll back up! Cover with foil and put in fridge or freezer. Best when made a day ahead.

**I always freeze them and pull them out when needed, they freeze beautifully!**
ENJOY!!

I tried to make a pumpkin roll 2 years ago and screwed it up so bad I couldn't even eat it. Might have to overcome my fear and try your recipe. Enjoy the sofa, I want one with a chaise, I hear you can't go back once you have one. Now I just have to wait for the one we have to wear itself out.

Oh, my heart is skipping a beat looking at this. I've never made this before but will definitely now. Congrats on your couch and elliptical. Me & my elliptical don't get along very well. I am a wimp. I can do an 1 hr on the treadmill on steep incline but hardly survive 10 min on the elliptical.Hah.

Thanks so much for commenting on my blog! I was pleasantly surprised to see that anyone actually looks at it! :) The pumpkin rolls look great! I love the idea of freezing them and having them on hand when needed. Also, I love the new couch. Sectionals are awesome. I always go for that little corner area. It's just super comfy for some reason.

this pumpkin roll looks delicious. And it goes so well with that cream cheese filling. I love your new couch. Wish I had an elliptical, I heard they were better than treadmills.

You do realize that with your new couch, a blanket and a game you will never see your husband again? Pumpkin rolls are so good and everyone likes them even when they think they won't. I will come over if we can watch men's swimming, it is much better than football, no sweat, just dripping beautiful muscles.

I haven't been too successful with jellyroll type things, I usually end up having to coat the outside in whipped cream to hide the flaws...
Anything with cream cheese frosting is pretty awesome though...
