1/4 c granulated sugar
1 large Egg
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 c pumpkin puree
1/2 c light brown sugar, packed
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 c liquid-state, coconut oil (canola or vegetable may be substituted)
2 tsp vanilla extract
A pinch of salt, optional, and to taste
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
Cream Cheese Filling:
1/4 c granulated sugar
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 large Egg
4 oz. softened brick-style cream cheese (lite is okay)
Directions:
Prepare the oven and preheat to 175 degrees C or 350 degrees F.
Apply cooking spray and sprinkle flour in a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
For the Batter
Add egg, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, granulated sugar, coconut oil, sour cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and nutmeg into a large mixing bowl. Whisk until well blended.
Add baking soda, flour, salt, and baking powder. Whisk until just incorporated.
Transfer 2/3 of the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
For the Cream Cheese Filling:
Add all the ingredients for the filling into a large mixing bowl. Whisk until well mixed.
Add the filling on top of the bread and spread it evenly.
Add the rest of the batter on top of the filling and spread it evenly.
Place it in the preheated oven and bake for 48 minutes or until the top turns golden brown. You can also check by inserting a toothpick in the middle. If it comes out clean, remove the bread from the oven.
Let the bread rest for 15 minutes at room temperature.
Serve warm and enjoy!
