Ingredients

• 250 g all-purpose flour
• 100 g granulated sugar
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 1.5 tbsp instant coffee
• 2 tbsp boiling water
• 100 g unsalted butter
• 120 ml milk
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 50 g brown sugar
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 100 g confectioners' sugar
• 15 ml brewed coffee

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 10x15 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, dissolve instant coffee in boiling water and set aside to cool.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, melt the butter and mix it with milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and the cooled coffee mixture.

Step 5

Gradually combine the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

Step 6

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared jelly roll pan and use a spatula to spread it out smoothly.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon, then sprinkle over the batter in the pan.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Let the cake cool for a few minutes, then turn it out onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with some confectioners' sugar.

Step 10

Roll up the cake, with the towel inside, starting from a short edge and working carefully to avoid cracks. Let it cool completely while rolled.

Step 11

Once cooled, unroll the cake and remove the towel.

Step 12

For the glaze, whisk together confectioners' sugar and brewed coffee until smooth. Adjust the thickness by adding more sugar or coffee as needed.

Step 13

Drizzle the glaze over the top of the unrolled cake, then roll it back up.

Step 14

Slice and serve the nut-free coffee roll, enjoying the sweet coffee flavor infused throughout.
