‘The Kitchn’ has put together a recipe for making a festive pumpkin loaf that contains a hidden cream cheese filling. When it comes to quick breads, many people like to add condiments such as butter or cream cheese. This delicious pumpkin bread is made with the toppings baked right inside.
The tutorial is adapted from the same quick bread recipe used to make banana bread, meaning it is extreme simple to follow. To begin, users must prepare the pumpkin dough. To keep the dough moist, the recipe calls for the addition of canola oil and sour cream. Once the dough has been prepared, it can be layered with the decadent cream cheese mixture. The end result is a tasty pumpkin loaf with a hidden cream cheese filling.
The recipe is perfect for those who are looking for a festive recipe with an added twist.
