Delicious Strawberry Jam Cake Roll
This cake roll features a fluffy sponge cake spread with strawberry jam, rolled tightly, and dusted with powdered sugar. It takes about 1 hour from start to finish and serves 8 people.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup strawberry jam
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Whipped cream or fresh strawberries for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
- Mix the Batter: In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until thick and pale. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until just combined.
- Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
- Roll the Cake: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and immediately turn it out onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Peel off the parchment paper and roll the cake up with the towel. Let it cool completely.
- Fill the Cake: Unroll the cooled cake and spread the strawberry jam evenly over the surface. Roll the cake back up without the towel.
- Serve: Dust the rolled cake with powdered sugar before slicing. Serve with whipped cream or fresh strawberries if desired.
