Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
In a bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk eggs and sugar until light; add pumpkin puree and vanilla.
Fold in dry ingredients until just combined. Spread into the prepared pan.
Bake for about 15 minutes or until springy to touch.
