Ingredients

Units Scale

Carrot Cake Roll Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup cane sugar (or granulated white sugar)
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil (or vegetable oil)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, homemade or store-bought
  • 2 cups shredded carrots (about 2-3 medium carrots)

Cream Cheese Filling Ingredients:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • 6 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. To Make The Carrot Cake Roll: Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 15 x 10-inch jelly-roll pan with parchment paper, leaving an extra 1-inch of parchment sticking up on both 15-inch sides of the pan so that you can easily lift the cake out after baking. Whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking powder, ginger, salt, nutmeg, and cloves in a medium bowl until combined…
  2. To Make The Cream Cheese Filling: Whisk together cream cheese, powdered sugar, butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. If the filling is too thin, add more powdered sugar. If it is too thick, add a half teaspoon or two of water…

Notes

  • If you want the cake to be pretty on the very ends, I recommend slicing off about 1/2-inch of the cake on both ends before serving. Then you’ll definitely see those pretty cream cheese swirls!
