The Perfect Cream Cheese Swirled Pumpkin Bread–Because Fall, Y’all

Fall just isn’t fall without a warm loaf of homemade pumpkin bread, straight from the oven! The best part is that homemade pumpkin bread with cream cheese filling takes just minutes to whip up–and this recipe is no exception.

This loaf has a crisp lid, plenty of pumpkin, and a handful of the most perfect fall spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice (trust me–you don’t want to skip any of these). It also has a creamy cream cheese swirl in the middle, and the bread is tender and moist!

Whisk up the pumpkin bread batter in one bowl, then mix up the quick cream cheese filling in another bowl. Layer them in your loaf pan, and then comes the hardest part–waiting for it to bake!

Once it’s out of the oven, promise me you’ll enjoy this bread while it’s nice and warm, with a hot mug of coffee, and a generous slather of melty salted butter. Trust me, you won’t be sorry.
