Very easy, delicious pumpkin roll, low in sugars with a filling recipe for you to make too! A filling that will work for many other recipes. Will you try it?
Each slice without filling has only 69 calories and with the filling it has only 84 calories. A cake with less sugar than conventional ones and no added fat!
For the dough you need:
- Eggs
- Vegetable drink or milk
- Whole wheat flour
- Boiled pumpkin
- Cinnamon
- Brown sugar
- Pinch of salt
- Baking powder
For the filling you need:
- Vegetable drink
- Cocoa powder
- Corn starch
- Brown sugar
Can I use another flour?
Yes, oat, rye or white wheat flour, for example, works very well too.
What pan size?
The pan I used was quite wide and shorter. You can use a longer and narrower one, giving a longer roll. Mine is roughly 40cm by 28cm. Don't use a small pan otherwise the batter will be too high making the rolling process difficult.
Can I use another filling?
Of course, for example melted dark chocolate or none. The cake is very good plain!
How to roll the batter?
After baking, place the cake on a clean kitchen towel. Roll it up with the towel inside and leave it for a few minutes. Unroll from the towel, add the filling and roll it back up.
Can I use another sugar?
Of course, or even honey, agave syrup or coconut sugar. Any sugar will work well!
