So I am going to have to make it again just so you can have that awesome recipe as well. But FIRST. Let’s kick off pumpkin season with my all-time fave…. this pumpkin roll recipe. I know a pumpkin roll can seem kind of intimating but they aren’t at all. If I can make a one then anyone can! I know that some methods of making a pumpkin roll include flipping it over on a dishtowel with powdered sugar. But remember, we like EASY. So just keep it on the parchment paper that it bakes on, and roll it up with that while it cools! Easy Peasy! Then when it is cool, simply unroll it, frost it, and roll it back up peeling the parchment paper off as you roll it. Here, let me show you how easy it is to make!

Parchment paper is your friend! You will use parchment paper twice in this recipe and it will make your life SO much easier! First, you will line your jellyroll pan with parchment paper and leave a one inch overhang. This makes it easy for removal and rolling up your pumpkin roll. Then, you will use the parchment paper for rolling your pumpkin roll. This helps it not stick to itself. Filling: When putting on the filling, leave an edge around the pumpkin cake so it doesn’t spill over when rolling it up.Chill to get a clean cut: To get the perfect cut, I like to chill my pumpkin roll for at least an hour or over night. This lets the filling set and a clean cut every time.
