Pumpkin Roll

We had a pumpkin left from Halloween that wasn't cut into.

I decided to use it up and make pumpkin rolls and soup.

I ended up making 6 rolls.
The rolls were used for mutual
for a temple celebration.

Here is a picture step by step how I made it.
The recipe is below.

Beat 3 eggs until very thick. 

Fold in dry ingredients (ingredients below.)
 

Gradually add pumpkin and lemon juice.

Pour batter into pan. The batter will not fill the pan. 

Line the pan with parchment. 

The cake will make it easier to remove.

The cake will be very thin.

Turn out on a tea towel dusted with powdered sugar and roll. 

Let cool for 30 minutes. After semi-cool, unroll and fill with filling.

Filling recipe below.

After it is frosted, reroll.

Wrap in saran wrap and freeze. 

Cut and serve when needed.
