The recipe is at home and the computer here at the flower shop. I will bring it in for you. There are a couple of tricks to a roll and I will tell you those now.

This is a cake batter but baked very thin. So it tends to break when you dump it out of the pan. So I spray the cookie sheet with Pam VERY heavily. When you pour and spread the batter, it should swim in the spray around the edges. When you dump it, you'll see why.

After it bakes, dump right away onto cotton towels or towel if large , covered with a thick layer of powdered sugar. This is when it may stick and break. If it does, DON'T panic!! Use a sharp knife to coax the stuck part away from the pan and puzzle piece it back together on your towel. Believe me, this has happened to me many, many times. It's OK. When you are ready to frost, you are going to mortar these pieces together and no one will notice. It's so yummy they will just want more!! I just put the that part on the bottom or if it's too large for that, I pre-slice the whole roll and no one can tell then. It won't matter a bit.

After you've dumped it onto the towel with the sugar, roll it in the towel like a burrito. Fold the sides of the towel into the cake also the ends, then roll rather tightly on the long edge. THat's why it needs to be hot, it can be rolled now. It should look like a towel log. You don't want the cake to touch cake only towel as you roll it.

Now refrigerate until cold, because I like to spread the work out, I usually leave it in there a day or two before I frost. You don't have to but it does need to be cold. When you unroll it cold, do so carefully and do not press it completely flat. Frost then roll it again. Here you will probably want to cut then ends off because they are not pretty and someone must be forced to eat them. OK, I volunteer. Now refrigerate again until firm as it will cut more prettily then. It can be wrapped in plastic wrap.

This freezes extremely well. I freeze, wrapping in extra layers then defrost in the fridge so it doesn't draw moisture. Slice and serve. If you are traveling with it sliced, put waxed paper between the slices.

Now you have all my wisdom learned over the years, grasshopper. I will bring in the recipe next.

Pumpkin Roll

3 eggs

1 c. sugar

2/3 c. pumpkin

1 T. lemon juice

3/4 c. mixed gluten-free flour

1/2 t. xantham gum

1/2 t. guar gum

1 t. baking powder

2 t. cinnamon

1/2 t. salt

1/2 t. nutmeg

1 t. ginger

Mix all ingredients well. Pour into well greased cookie sheet or jelly roll. Spread to the edges. Tap pan on counter to settle. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. (gluten-free baking usually takes a little longer.)

Take a cotton dish towel and lay flat. Cover heavily with powdered sugar, covering all edges. When cake is done baking invert pan onto dish towel. Fold towel edges into cake and roll into a tight roll, lengthwise. You want the longest roll you can make. Refridgerate until completely cold.

Filling

1 c. powdered sugar

8 oz. cream cheese

4 T. butter

1 t. vanilla

Beat all ingredients well until fluffy. Unroll cooled cake and spread filling over entire surface. Reroll cake without towel. Wrap in plastic wrap and place seam down in refridgerator until well chilled. Slice and serve or freeze for later.

Now go out and dazzle your family and friends!!

Well, the cake part is already dairy free, so maybe a thick marshmallow center? Or melted chocolate chips? Or pumpkin butter?

ang1e0251 Contributor

I was also thinking marshmallow creme for the center or nondairy whipped cream but then you must keep it cold.

Hey, would you all let me know how you like it after the hol's?

Merry Christmas!

Caution! I went to a women's Christmas party last night. A gal told us that she had made a pumpkin roll to bring but had to trash it. She dampened the towel and the cake was a soggy, gooey mess. So don't wet the towel! :blink:

ang1e0251 Contributor

No...a wet towel would be bad!! Dry towel with powdered sugar on top.

I made your recipe for our Christmas evening dessert and it was a big hit. I didn't have it stick at all (I did grease and flour the pan). This was a really nice easy dessert to make. The only mishap we had was that a bird decided to sample it as I had it on a tray on the back porch (fridge temperature outside). The bird only ate a small amount from one end so we just cut it off and served. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks so much for sharing. I will certainly try this as soon as I'm comfortable baking again. :)

(I have like a baking phobia or something...years of avoiding grains not knowing it was mostly just gluten...lol)

      Hi Trents-Thanks for reading and sharing insight.  We need all the help we can get and it's super appreciated.  She is currently dairy, soy and oat free and those have mostly been completely excluded from her diet since the diagnosis (we tried going back on dairy and oats at different times for a bit, didn't see a significant difference but have now cut out again just to be extra safe since her issues are so persistent.  We did cut eggs out for about 3 months and didn't notice significant difference there, either.  The only one we haven't specifically cut out completely for any portion of time is corn, however, we've kept it minimal in all of our diets for a long time.  She definitely goes 3-4 weeks without any corn products at times and still has issues, but I'm guessing that's not long enough to confirm that it isn't causing issues.   We could definitely try to go longer just to double check.  Thanks again!

      Ok so know one knows about cross reactions from yeast,corn, potatoes, eggs, quinoa ,chocolate, milk, soy, and a few more I forgot.  There all gluten free but share a similar structure to gluten proteins. I use to be able to eat potatoes but now all of a sudden I was stumped and couldn't figure it out when I got shortness of breath like I was suffocating.  Then figured it out it was the potatoes.  They don't really taste good anyways. Get the white yams and cherry red 🍠 yams as a sub they taste way better. It's a cross reaction! Google foods that cross react with celiacs.  Not all of them you will cross react too. My reactions now unfortunately manifest in my chest and closes everything up . Life sucks then we die. Stay hopeful and look and see different companies that work for you . Lentils from kroger work for me raw in the bag and says nothing about gluten free but it works for me just rinse wellllll.....don't get discouraged and stay hopeful and don't pee off god

      Hi Lily Ivy. Thanks for responding. Did you have withdrawal? If so, what was it like and for how long?

      Welcome to the forum, @Doris Barnes! You do realize don't you that the "gluten free" label does not mean the same thing as "free of gluten"? According to FDA regulations, using the "gluten free" label simply means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is labeling deployed by an independent testing group known as GFCO which means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 10 ppm. Either concentration of gluten can still cause a reaction in folks who fall into the more sensitive spectrum of the celiac community. 20 ppm is safe for most celiacs. Without knowing how sensitive you are to small amounts of gluten, I cannot speak to whether or not the Hu Kitechen chocolates are safe for you. But it sounds like they have taken sufficient precautions at their factory to ensure that this product will be safe for the large majority of celiacs.

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.
