Pumpkin Bread with filling
SUBMITTED by Grandma T.
“I put a couple recipes together and came up with this one. It’s a winner!”

Filling:
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg

Batter:
1 ¾ cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 large eggs
1 cups sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup canned pumpkin
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray 9 x 5 x 3 inch loaf pan with cooking spray; set aside.
To make filling: In small bowl blend together cream cheese, sugar and egg; set aside.
To make batter: In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg; set aside. In another large bowl, whisk the eggs until lightly beaten. Add the sugar, butter, pumpkin, water, and vanilla extract. Add the flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture and stir just until the ingredients are combined (do not over stir mixture). Pour half the batter in the loaf pan. Spoon cream cheese mixture on top of the bottom batter, staying about ½ inch from the sides all around. Top with the remaining half of batter. Bake the bread for about 55 - 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Can serve warm or cooled.
