Ingredients
Cake
5largeeggs, at room temperature
¾cupgranulated sugar
115-ounce canunseasoned pumpkin puree, divided
½cupall-purpose flour
½cupwhole-wheat pastry flour
1teaspoonground cinnamon
1teaspoonground ginger
½teaspoonbaking soda
½teaspoonsalt
¼teaspoonfreshly grated nutmeg
2teaspoonsconfectioners' sugar, divided
Filling
8ouncesreduced-fat cream cheese, at room temperature
½cuppecans, toasted and chopped
¼cupconfectioners' sugar, plus more for dusting
¼cupnonfat plain yogurt
1tablespoonfinely chopped crystallized ginger
Pinch of salt
Directions
Beat eggs and granulated sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment on medium-high speed until pale yellow and thick, about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup pumpkin, reserving the rest for the filling, and mix on medium speed until incorporated, about 1 minute.
Whisk all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, cinnamon, ground ginger, baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt and nutmeg in a medium bowl. Sift the flour mixture over the pumpkin mixture and fold with a flexible spatula until combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Bake the cake until firm and the top springs back when touched lightly, about 18 minutes. Immediately run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the cake. Dust with 1 teaspoon confectioners' sugar. Place a clean kitchen towel on top and quickly flip the cake onto a clean work surface. Remove the pan and discard the parchment paper. Dust the cake lightly with 1 teaspoon confectioners' sugar. Starting at the one side of the cake, carefully roll up the cake in the kitchen towel. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet and refrigerate until cool, at least 1 hour.
Meanwhile, to prepare filling & assemble cake: Combine the remaining pumpkin, cream cheese, pecans, confectioners' sugar, yogurt, crystallized ginger and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat until combined.
Unroll the cooled cake on a clean work surface, keeping it on the towel. Spread the filling over the cake to within about 1/2 inch of the edge. Starting with one side, snugly roll the cake, wrap in the towel and chill until firm, about 1 hour.
Unwrap the cake and place on a serving platter. Dust lightly with more confectioners' sugar, if desired. Slice with a serrated knife into 12 pieces and serve immediately.
Tips
To make ahead:Wrap cake in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
Equipment:Parchment paper

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
