Ingredients

Scale
  • Pumpkin Roll:
    • 3 large eggs
    • 1 cup granulated sugar
    • 2/3 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Cream Cheese Filling:
    • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
    • 4 tablespoons salted butter, softened
    • 1 cup powdered sugar
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper and grease it lightly.
  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until thick and pale.
  • Mix in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Gradually fold this mixture into the wet ingredients.
  • Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 13-15 minutes or until the top springs back when lightly touched.
  • While the cake bakes, prepare a kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar.
  • Once baked, immediately turn the cake onto the prepared towel, peel off the parchment paper, and roll the cake up in the towel. Allow it to cool completely.
  • For the filling, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract and beat until creamy.
  • Unroll the cooled cake, spread the filling evenly over it, and then roll it back up without the towel.
  • Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.

Notes

  • Make sure the pumpkin puree is not pumpkin pie filling, as the additional ingredients can alter the texture.
  • For clean slices, refrigerate the roll before cutting and use a sharp knife.
