Ingredients

• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2/3 cup pumpkin puree
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Additional powdered sugar, for dusting

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan and line it with parchment paper.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar until thick and pale yellow in color. Add the pumpkin puree and lemon juice, and mix until well combined.
4. Fold in the dry ingredients until just combined. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared jelly roll pan.
5. Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the top of the cake springs back when lightly touched.
6. While the cake is baking, lay a clean kitchen towel flat on the counter and generously dust it with powdered sugar.
7. When the cake is done, immediately invert it onto the prepared kitchen towel. Carefully peel off the parchment paper.
8. Starting at one of the short ends, roll the cake up in the towel, jelly roll style. Allow it to cool completely in the towel.
9. In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
10. Unroll the cooled cake and spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the surface.
11. Gently roll the cake back up, without the towel this time. Place it on a serving platter.
12. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Dust with additional powdered sugar before slicing and serving.
