Ingredients
  

  • 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 cup pumpkin purée
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg

For The Cream Cheese Filling:

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉. Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick baking spray. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, sift together flour, granulated sugar, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until combined. Set aside.
  •  In another bowl, whisk pumpkin purée, brown sugar, sour cream, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth.
  • Pour the sifted dry ingredients in with the wet. Stir with a spatula until just combined and dry ingredients are no longer visible, being sure to scrape the sides of the bowl.
  • Make the cream cheese filling by using an electric mixer to mix softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until well combined and smooth.
  • Pour 1/2 of the pumpkin batter into the prepared bread pan, spreading it evenly across the bottom with a spatula.
