TIPS FOR SUCCESS

  • Make sure to use canned pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling, as they are different.
  • For best results, use room temperature ingredients, especially the cream cheese, as it will be easier to mix and achieve a smooth texture.
  • When swirling the cream cheese filling into the pumpkin batter, be gentle with the knife to create a marbled effect without fully mixing the two batters.
  • Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. This will help it set and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • To store the bread, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or place it in an airtight container. It can be kept at room temperature for 2-3 days or refrigerated for up to a week.
  • You can substitute some of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a slightly nuttier flavor and added fiber.
  • If you don’t have all the individual spices listed, you can use pumpkin pie spice instead. Substitute 2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice for the individual spices listed in the recipe.
  • Instead of vegetable oil, you can use melted butter or coconut oil for a different flavor profile.
  • Feel free to add chopped nuts, such as walnuts or pecans, to the batter for added texture and crunch.
