Pumpkin Roll

It's Friday and time for another Pumpkin recipe as we work our way towards Thanksgiving.  Yesterday evening I made 2 pumpkin rolls and 1 pumpkin bread and my house sure smelled good with the aroma of pumpkin and spice in the air. 

If you have never made a pumpkin roll and feel a bit intimidated to try it, don't be.  It really is pretty simple to do. 

 

Pumpkin Roll

3 eggs beaten well

1 cup sugar

1 cup pumpkin

1 Tblsp. cinnamon

1 Tblsp. lemon juice

3/4 cup self rising flour

 

Blend all ingredients together.

Spread ingredients on cookie sheet - see directions below.

 

How to Prepare Cookie Sheet

lightly spray with cooking oil spray

cover with wax paper - leaving "handles" on each end about a couple inches

lightly spray wax paper with cooking oil spray

 

After you have spread your pumpkin batter onto wax paper lined cookie sheet,

Bake 15 - 20 minutes in a 350 degree oven.

When finished baking you will flip the pumpkin roll out onto a dish towl that has been covered with confectioners sugar - using your wax paper "handles". 

Peel wax paper off and roll up in dish towl while hot.

Allow to cool completely then unroll, add icing and roll back up.

Thats it!  Your done!
