Recipe Description
This cream cheese filled pumpkin bread combines two of my favorite desserts – pumpkin bread and cheesecake.This cream cheese filled pumpkin bread is soft and moist from the coconut oil and pumpkin pure and a little fluffy from the Greek yogurt. I used just 1/2 cup of sugar for the pumpkin bread. If you like your baked goods more sweet, you can definitely increase the amount of sugar to 3/4 cups.
The cream cheese layer adds enough of creaminess and makes this bread taste like a fancy dessert. Enjoy with a cup of coffee, tea of a pumpkin spiced drink.
