Ingredients
  

For the Bread
  • 2 cups pumpkin purée
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 large eggs Can substitute with flax eggs for a vegan option.
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
For the Cinnamon Filling
  • 1 cup cinnamon roll filling (brown sugar, cinnamon, butter)
For the Cream Cheese Glaze
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2-4 tablespoons milk To thin glaze to desired consistency.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine pumpkin purée, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vegetable oil. Mix well until fully combined.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, stirring until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined and no flour streaks remain.
Filling and Baking
  1. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter for the filling.
  2. Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan, followed by half the cinnamon filling mixture. Swirl gently with a knife. Repeat with the remaining batter and filling.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Cream Cheese Glaze
  1. In a medium bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and enough milk to reach your desired consistency.
  2. Once your bread is completely cooled, drizzle the cream cheese glaze over the top.
Serving
  1. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
