We are going on week three of the pumpkin goodies in my house and I don’t think we’ll ever get tired if this.
There is just something about pumpkin spice in baking that I can never get tired of.
So following along on the pumpkin spice train, this week we are making pumpkin spice cream cheese bread!
If you missed the first two, here is what we have made so far:
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Blondies
But before we get started I needed to mention something that I have received some feedback on. Please please PLEASE! Check your baked goodies before taking them out of the oven. My oven temp and such might vary from yours. So when you are baking, make sure to check with a knife before taking the goods out and turning the oven off.
I felt so bad when my friend tried to make up the chocolate chip pumpkin bars I posted a few weeks back, and she ended up with a soupy center!
Always check your baked goods with a knife or toothpick before taking them out of the oven!
Okay. Now I have said what I needed to say.
Back to pumpkin.
This week I am sharing my favorite pumpkin bread recipe! It is packed with flavor aaaaand cream cheese.
The best pair, in my opinion.
My recipe does make a rather large loaf that takes quite some time to bake. But you could also divvy it up into two smaller loaves, or pour and spoon for muffins.
Anyway you go about it, they will be delicious.
