Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for filling)
- Optional: chopped nuts or chocolate shavings for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and grease lightly.
- In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
- In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar using an electric mixer until thick and pale, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture, folding gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Pour the batter onto the prepared jelly roll pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
- Once baked, remove from the oven. Immediately turn the cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Carefully peel off the parchment paper and roll the cake with the towel, starting from the short end. Let it cool completely.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Once the cake has cooled, unroll it gently. Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the cake, leaving a small border at the edges.
- Carefully roll the cake back up without the towel. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing.
- Once chilled, slice the cake into pieces and dust with additional powdered sugar if desired.
