Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2/3 cup canned pumpkin purée (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Filling:
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional Topping: extra powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper; lightly grease it.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
  3. In a large bowl, beat eggs and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in pumpkin purée and vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet mixture and stir until just combined.
  5. Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan and bake for 13–15 minutes or until the cake springs back when touched.
  6. While baking, prepare a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar.
  7. Immediately turn the baked cake onto the towel, peel off parchment paper, and gently roll it up from the short end. Let cool completely.
  8. To make the filling, beat cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and fluffy.
  9. Carefully unroll the cooled cake, spread filling evenly, and roll it back up (without the towel).
  10. Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

  • Add chopped toasted pecans or walnuts to the filling for crunch.
  • Drizzle caramel sauce on top for an indulgent finish.
  • Use maple or cinnamon-flavored cream cheese for a twist.
  • Adjust spice levels based on preference.
  • Roll the cake while warm to avoid cracking.
