Description

A wonderfully moist and flavorful pumpkin bread with a rich cream cheese filling perfect for fall.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare your pans by greasing a 9×5-inch loaf pan or lining it with parchment paper.
  3. Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl: whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  4. Combine the sugars in another bowl, breaking up any clumps of brown sugar.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the sugar mixture and mix until well-combined.
  6. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, folding gently until just mixed.
  7. Make the cream cheese filling by beating the softened cheese until smooth.
  8. Layer half the pumpkin batter in the pan, dollop cream cheese mixture, and then pour the remaining batter over the top.
  9. Swirl the batter with a knife to create a marbled effect.
  10. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  11. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Slice and enjoy warm with butter or maple syrup. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
