Pumpkin rolls, the sound of these words mapped on my brain along with its aroma and taste.. A super easy and utterly delicious are these rolls.
As I told you that I am on journey to explore immunity booster recipes and its been more than a week and this journey has been incredible! I am amazed to use pumpkin in several recipes and the best thing is most of them are totally new to me as if I participated in an extempore competition.
Its just here I knew the topic like Pumpkin recipes but which one is always new and experimented. I am glad that the result is great so far and thats what matters!!
The excitement of kids about what is being clicked and what new dish they would be served, is motivating enough for me to keep trying the new recipes and sharing them with you!!
Yeah sometime its scary and I wonder what would happen if it doesnt turn out the way I expected. Then, I believe my chef skills to come out and play their role.
If anything goes wrong, there is always some way out and we can figure it out if we really wish to. It happened with me when I tried Pumpkin cake before pumpkin rolls. It was not clicked as the topping of the cake was disturbed and I could click it like that. It raised well and was really delicious but I had to give it up and see I arrived upon a new recipe of rolls.
If we have positive bent of mind, all seems easy and smooth!

Recipe Insights
About the recipe, all I used was Pumpkin puree, all purpose flour (Maida), milk, lemon juice, ghee, sugar, butter, baking powder, baking soda. I had made pumpkin puree a day in advance and you may check its recipe on the link : Pumpkin Puree.
I had taken the salted butter and I added no salt in the recipe. If you have unsalted butter, you may add ½ teaspoon salt. Salt helps in digestion and I always try to include it in my desserts specially if they have maida. If you wish, you may replace maida by wheat and it does'nt require any change in recipe.
Wheat is always healthy option. I was trying for the first time, so I tried it with maida. Very soon, I would upload these desserts with wheat!!
I had taken cold butter and mixed it with sugar using spatula. It takes around 2-3 min. Then I added little milk, pumpkin puree and mixed for 2 more mins. once it blends in a smooth paste, sieve Maida , baking powder, baking soda and mix by cut and fold method.
That means, you dont over mix as the cake/ rolls dont rise if we overbeat this mixture. It should not be very thick or runny. Pour it to greased nonstick pan and cook for 8-10 min by covering with a lid.
You may check it in between. After around 3-4 min, it starts rising and the color of the base and top starts darkening. (brown).
Once its done, you may pierce the roll sheet with knife in the center and if it comes clean, its done. Let it cool for 5-10 min. Then roll it to wrap in a food wrap or aluminum foil. Refrigerate it for 30 min.
Open and slice in pieces. I was out of stock for the cream. If you wish, you may apply a layer of cream over the roll sheet before rolling and keeping it in refrigerator.
A key to a good and fluffy cake, pie, rolls is to mix really well the wet ingredients and mix very gently once the dry ingredients are added to wet ones.
Enjoy it with a cup of coffee.
