Pumpkin Roll Recipe with Cream Cheese Filling

Hope you had a lovely weekend!  We woke up to rain and noticeably cooler weather yesterday, which we happily welcomed.  That little push of cooler air, got me thinking Fall and this recipe came to mind.  My sister-in-law made this a few years ago at Thanksgiving and it was so delicious!  I've made it several times since, and it's always a hit!

The filling is the best!  Gooey, buttery, cream cheese goodness!

All I needed to pick up to make this was a can of pumpkin, so I whipped it up yesterday afternoon and thought I would share it today!  So here it is.

Pumpkin Roll with cream cheese filling

bread ingredients

• 3/4 cup flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 3/4 cup canned pumpkin
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup pecans
• powdered sugar to sprinkle

filling ingredients

• 8 oz cream cheese
• 2 tbsp butter
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 cup powdered sugar

Method

1. Mix all filling ingredients together first and allow to sit at room temp until ready to spread.
2. Preheat over to 375.
3. Mix flour, baking soda, sugar and cinnamon in bowl.
4. Next mix in pumpkin and eggs.
5. Cover cookie sheet with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
6. Spread bread batter onto paper over pan and sprinkle pecans over top and bake for 15 minutes.
7. Remove from over and turn over onto dish towel.
8. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and roll up into dish towel and allow to cool for 1 hour.
9. After cooling unroll and spread filling over the top and re-roll without towel.  (Bread may break, but not to worry, it will still turn out great!)
10. After rolling with filling, wrap in foil and allow to cool in refrigerator for at least 1 hour or until ready to serve.

fall mantel // simple gold

 

 

Good Morning!  I hope your week is off to a lovely start!  I finally got my mantel looking a little more like Fall.  Well, Kinda :)  This year I changed things up a bit and decided to go with a simple, gold Fall mantel.  I love the traditional Fall colors too, but when I found the glittery, gold pumpkin and gold hooter, I decide to just go for the gold ;)  They were definitely the starting pieces for the rest of the mantel.

 

 

 

I couldn't find a banner that I really liked so I decided to make one.  I used scrapbook paper, gold glittery letters and gold ribbon, all which I picked up at Michael's.  The pumpkin is also from Michael's and the hooter is from Target.

 

 

This framed Fall watercolor print was my final addition to this mantel.  Grant and I picked up this print when we visited Asheville, NC in the Fall a few years ago.  It is a beautiful, blend of soft Autumn colors and definitely reminds of our amazing trip. 

 

And you may or may have not noticed, but I even painted my mirror gold.  The dark brown color just wasn't working for me anyone.  Figured just as easy as it became gold, it could become another color again, right :)

 

This is definitely a bit different from my Fall mantel last year, but it's fun to switch things up a bit.  So what about you...are you a traditional Fall color person (which I love too) or do you like to jazz it up a bit?

 

Happy Fall!  Have an amazing day!!
