Ingredients

• 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.6667 cup Pumpkin puree
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 cup Powdered sugar
• 8 ounces Cream cheese
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Powdered sugar (for filling)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and line a 15x10-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar together until pale and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Mix in the pumpkin puree until combined.

Step 4

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until fully incorporated. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared jelly roll pan.

Step 5

Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly pressed. While the cake bakes, lay a clean kitchen towel on a flat surface and generously sprinkle it with powdered sugar.

Step 6

Once the cake is done, immediately invert it onto the prepared towel. Carefully peel away the parchment paper. Starting at one of the shorter ends, gently roll the cake and towel together into a log. Let it cool completely, seam side down.

Step 7

While the cake cools, prepare the filling. Beat together the cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar (for filling), and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 8

Once the cake is completely cool, carefully unroll it. Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the surface, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 9

Roll the cake back up (without the towel) tightly but gently. Wrap the pumpkin roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Step 10

Dust with additional powdered sugar before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
