Low Fat Pumpkin Roll Recipes

HEALTHIER PUMPKIN ROLL WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Prepare the cake: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 15- x 10-inch jellyroll pan with cooking spray. Whisk together flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, ginger, nutmeg and cloves in a large bowl.
• Beat eggs and granulated sugar with an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment on medium-high speed until light, fluffy and pale yellow, about 3 minutes. Add pumpkin and vanilla; beat until fully combined, about 30 seconds.
• Add flour mixture to egg mixture; gently fold in using a spatula until combined. Pour batter into prepared jellyroll pan, gently spreading to edges of pan using an offset spatula. Bake in preheated oven until cake is dry to the touch and edges have pulled away from pan, 13 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, sift 2 tablespoons of the powdered sugar onto a clean linen kitchen towel. Once cake is finished baking, immediately invert onto towel, and carefully remove parchment paper from cake. Sift 2 tablespoons of the powdered sugar on top of cake to cover thoroughly. Starting with 1 short end, roll up cake and towel together toward the opposite end (working fast while cake is still hot so it does not crack). Let rolled cake cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Beat cream cheese and yogurt with a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium-high speed until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Add powdered sugar, maple syrup and vanilla; beat on medium-high speed until combined and smooth, about 1 minute. Set aside at room temperature until ready to use.
• Gently unroll cake, and remove towel. Spread filling in an even layer on top of cake. Re-roll cake in the same direction, and place on a serving platter. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 3 hours. Dust with remaining 2 tablespoons powdered sugar and serve.

PUMPKIN ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a jelly roll pan (15 x 10'') with parchment paper, leaving an extra inch of parchment sticking up on both long sides of the pan so that you can easily lift the cake out after baking. (You can VERY lightly grease the parchment paper, if you want to, but you don't need to!)
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice. In a separate bowl mix the eggs, sugar, vanilla and pumpkin until smooth.
• Add dry ingredients to the bowl and stir just until combined and no dry streaks remain.
• Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
• Bake for 14-15 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Immediately lift the payment paper and hot cake out of the pan and onto a flat (heat-safe) surface.
• While the cake is hot, starting at one of the short ends, use your hands to gently and slowly roll the cake (and parchment paper!) all the way up. Allow it to cool completely, on top of a wire cooling rack. (This allows it to cool underneath the roll, and keeps the cake from sweating).
• While the cake roll is cooling, mix the cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and powdered sugar together with an electric mixer until it is fluffy and smooth.
• Once the cake roll is cooled completely, unroll it very carefully. Gently smooth the filling in an even layer over the cake.
• Roll up the cake without the parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, before serving.
• Dust the top with powdered sugar, if desired. You could use a duster, spoon, or even your fingers to lightly sprinkle it on top of the roll. Cut into slices and serve.
• Store in the fridge, covered, for up to three days.
