Swiss Roll Recipe / Jelly Roll Recipe / Jam Roll Recipe

Swiss rolls are so much fun to make, most of you think it is a complicated thing to make, but i am telling it is more easy than making any other cakes or desert because it just take less than 12 mins to bake and the batter can be made in less than 10 mins and it just need a handful of ingredients. Plus it has no fat in them so it is pretty healthy.

This is a plain swiss roll recipe, i spread some mixed fruit jam over it. You can spread butter cream, chocolate spread, custard or anything as you like over them. Will share the different version soon.
This swiss roll turned out so tasty and everyone loved it, taste yum with a cup of coffee or tea.
Hope you will give this a try this christmas and let me know how it turned out for you..
Preparation Time : 20 mins
Baking Time : 10 to 12 mins
Makes : 10 slices

Ingredients:
Eggs – 3
Powdered Sugar – 1/2 cup + 1.5 tblspn / 120 grams
All Purpose Flour / Maida – 1 cup / 120 grams
Vanilla Essence – 2 tsp
Warm Water – 2 tblspn
Jam – as needed ( I used a mixed fruit jam)
Icing Sugar or Powdered sugar for sprinkling

(My 1 cup measures 240 ml )

Method:
Preheat oven to 190 Degree C.
Start by preparing a swiss roll pan by applying some oil over it, then line it with parchment paper and apply oil on that as well. Now sprinkle it with some flour and tap off the excess flour. Set this aside till use.
Now take eggs in a bowl and beat till fluffy.
Now add in sugar and beat till nice and fluffy again.
Add in vanilla and warm water and beat till fluffy.
Now sieve in flour two time and fold very gently till it is well combined,
Pour this in prepared pan and spread thinly.
Bake this for 10 to 12 mins.
Remove it and let it cool for 2 mins.
Spread a parchment paper on a table, sprinkle with some more powdered sugar or icing sugar. Flip the cake over the sugar. Peel off the parchment carefully. Cover the entire cake with a slightly damp cloth and let it cool completely.
Now spread some jam all over it and carefully roll it.
Place this in a tray and sprinkle with icing sugar.
Slice and serve.

Pictorial:
You need a handful of ingredients

Start by preparing the pan..I used this big rectangle baking tray..You can use swiss roll pan

first brush the base lightly with oil

line it with parchment paper

brush it with some more oil

sprinkle some maida / flour over it

coat on all sides..Pan done..set this aside

Now if you are using granulated sugar, take it in a blender

make it into a powder..

Crack open 3 eggs in a large bowl
Use a electric beater to whip it up

now it is lightly whipped

Add in sugar 

whip till it is fluffy

Add in vanilla

and some warm water

beat it again..

beat till it is fluffy..this stage is really important because it will make the rolls soft

Now take flour in a sifter and sieve half of them in

once half of the flour is sifted

fold it gently in

once that batch is mixed

sieve the remaining flour in

now fold this very gently

you have to keep the air which you whipped there..so fold very gently

Now the batter is done

pour this into the tray

once everything is poured

spread it out thinly

bake it for 10 to 12 mins till the top is springy

now spread a sheet of parchment paper in the table

sprinkle icing sugar generously

you can use normal powdered sugar as well

flip the cake carefully over the sugar

peel off the parchment very carefully

ta da

Now wet some kitchen towel

spread it over the cake..this prevents the cake from drying

now the cake is cooled

Dollop your favourite jam, you can spread chocolate as well

spread it out thinly

now start rolling carefully

Now it is all rolled

place this in a plate

dust with some icing sugar

slice and serve

    I baked it for ten minutes. the appearance was same like your cake. But it was not spongy and flexible hence it could not be rolled. As I rolled, it broke in three parts 😛 and looked like a clumsy Swiss sandwich :)))…my brothers teased me a lott and I am sure it's going down in our family history records to narrate it to my children and grand-children. :-/ :)).
    Is there a possibility that by adding baking soda or baking powder it could have become spongy and flexible?

    @Myrai think u haven't whipped the egg enought. Whip it till it is airy and fluffy, that will give the fluffyness and flexiblity. baking soda and baking powder is not necessary
