Lemon Coconut Matzo Jelly Roll Recipes

SHEET PAN JELLY ROLL

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat it to 375 degrees F. Lightly coat an 18-by-13-inch sheet pan with nonstick baking spray. Line the bottom with parchment. Set aside.
• Beat the eggs, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on high speed until the mixture is pale and very thick (enough to hold a pattern in the wake of the whisk), about 10 minutes see Cook's Note). Reduce the speed to medium-high and drizzle in the butter and vanilla until just combined, about 10 seconds. Reduce the speed to low and add the sifted flour all at once. Beat until just combined, about 5 seconds. Gently fold the batter once or twice using a rubber spatula, then scrape it into the prepared sheet pan. Spread it evenly with the spatula, using broad, gentle strokes to keep the batter airy.
• Bake, rotating the pan halfway through, until the top is set but still pale, about 15 minutes. Make sure not to overcook the cake or it will crack when you roll it.
• While the cake is still hot, sift a thin layer of confectioner's sugar over the top. Run a sharp paring knife around the edges of the cake to loosen it. Lay a clean kitchen towel over the cake and carefully flip the sheet pan onto a work surface. Gently peel off the parchment. Starting at one of the short ends, gently roll the still-warm cake and the towel together. (This must be done while the cake is hot to keep it from cracking.) Wear oven mitts, if needed.
• Allow the rolled-up cake to cool completely.
• Gently unroll the cake and spread the strawberry jam evenly over the cake using an offset spatula. Re-roll the cake this time without the towel and place on a platter seam-side down. Dust the top with more confectioner's sugar. Slice and serve.

JELLY ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a jelly roll pan; line with parchment or waxed paper and grease paper.
• Stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter, 2 eggs, and the vanilla to the dry ingredients and beat with an electric mixer on high speed until fluffy. Separate the remaining 2 eggs. Place the whites in a small bowl and beat the yolks into the batter.
• With clean beaters, beat the egg whites at high speed until they are stiff; fold beaten whites into the batter just until no white streaks remain.
• Spread batter into the prepared pan and bake until the center springs back when lightly pressed, about 15 minutes.
• Sift confectioners' sugar over a linen towel that has been spread out on a work surface; invert cake onto towel. Quickly, remove parchment, trim off crisp cake edges, spread cake with jam, and roll up using towel as an aid. Tightly roll cake in towel and set aside, open side down, until completely cool, about 30 minutes. Transfer to serving plate and slice crosswise.
