Ingredients

• 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.667 cup canned pumpkin puree
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
• 8 ounces cream cheese
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for filling)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 15x10-inch baking pan with parchment paper and grease it lightly.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar with an electric mixer on high speed until thick and pale, about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Add the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract to the egg mixture and beat until combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture and gently fold until just incorporated.

Step 6

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan and spread it out with a spatula. Tap the pan lightly to release air bubbles.

Step 7

Bake for 12-13 minutes, or until the top of the cake springs back when touched lightly.

Step 8

While the cake bakes, lay a clean kitchen towel on a flat surface and dust it generously with powdered sugar.

Step 9

Immediately after removing the cake from the oven, carefully turn it out onto the prepared towel. Peel off the parchment paper.

Step 10

Starting from a short edge, gently roll the cake and towel together into a tight spiral. Let it cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 11

To prepare the filling, beat the cream cheese and butter together in a bowl until smooth and creamy.

Step 12

Add the sifted powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture and beat until fully combined and smooth.

Step 13

Once the cake has cooled, carefully unroll it and spread an even layer of the cream cheese filling over the surface, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 14

Roll the cake back up tightly, without the towel, and wrap it in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

Step 15

Before serving, dust the pumpkin roll with powdered sugar and slice into 1-inch pieces. Enjoy!
