  • mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

  • Cream Cheese Filling:
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 /2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • Bread:
  • 1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 /2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 /2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 /2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 /2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease a 9-by-5 inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
  • Prepare filling: In a medium bowl, beat softened cream cheese, sugar, flour, 1 egg, and vanilla until smooth. Set aside.
  • Prepare dry ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and pumpkin pie spice. Set aside.
  • Prepare batter: In a large bowl, beat vegetable oil, 1 1/2 cups sugar, 2 eggs, and pumpkin puree until well combined.
  • Combine: Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet pumpkin mixture, stirring until just evenly combined.
  • Assemble: Pour 1 1/2 cups of batter into the prepared loaf pan. Spoon the cream cheese mixture over the top and spread evenly. Pour the remaining batter over the filling.
  • Bake: Bake for 85 to 95 minutes. Cover with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking to ensure softer edges. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
  • Cool: Cool in the pan for 15 minutes before removing. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely before slicing.

Notes

- Cover with foil for the final 15 minutes of baking to prevent over-browning and maintain softer edges.
- The bread must cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
