How To Make pumpkin cake roll

  • 1
    Beat eggs on high speed of mixer for 5 minutes; gradually beat in sugar. Stir in pumpkin and lemon juice. Stir together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Fold into pumpkin mixture.
  • 2
    Spread into greased and floured 15x10x1 inch pan. top with chopped nuts. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes. (I baked at 350 degrees because I was using a dark non-stick surface baking pan lined with greased and floured parchment paper. The cake is easier to get out of the pan.)
  • 3
    While still warm turn out onto towel sprinkled with powdered sugar and roll starting at narrow end (roll towel and cake together). Cool.
  • 4
    Combine all ingredients for cake and beat smooth. Unroll cake, spread with filling. Reroll cake and chill. Optional: Sprinkle finished cake with powdered sugar.
