One of my favorite things to have at Christmas is a slice of Pumpkin Roll for breakfast. This pumpkin roll recipe is from my mom. My mom has made them ever since I can remember. Have been trying for a while to make one, and seemed to always mess it up. Mom always made it look so easy. Excited to say was finally able to make one on my own.
