Pumpkin Roll Recipe

My father-in-law asked me to make my pumpkin roll for Christmas this year. Here is a recipe that I have been using for years. I will upload a picture of the roll on Christmas Day.

3 eggs

Beat eggs until fluffy. Add sugar slowly and then pumpkin puree.

In a separate bowl, whisk together...

2 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. ginger

Bake 375 degrees for 12-15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes. Take a clean dish towel and put cake on top. roll up from the short end and let cool.
