Ingredients

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 4 whole large eggs
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, whisk together the 3/4 cup flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, beat the 4 eggs and 1/2 cup sugar with an electric mixer on high until thick and pale, about 3-4 minutes. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.

  4. 4

    Gently fold the flour mixture into the egg mixture until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.

  5. 5

    Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the cake springs back when touched. While hot, dust the top with 1 tablespoon cinnamon and 1/4 cup powdered sugar.

  6. 6

    Roll the cake tightly from a short end, using the parchment to help. Let it cool completely on a wire rack.

  7. 7

    Slice and serve with whipped cream on top.
