Description
Delicious marbled pumpkin cheesecake bread bars that combine the flavors of pumpkin bread and creamy cheesecake in a delightful treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- ¾ cup pumpkin puree
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ½ cup butter softened
- 1–¼ cup all purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- ¾ tsp salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- ½ tsp ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- 2 tablespoon whole milk
- 1 egg
- 8 oz cream cheese brick
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large bowl; mix flour, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, nutmeg, salt, baking soda and baking powder.
- In the bowl of your stand mixer, blend butter and sugars until smooth. Beat in egg, pumpkin puree and milk.
- Add the flour mixture to your stand mixer and beat until smooth. Set aside.
- Beat cream cheese, sugar, egg and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
- Line a 9″x13″ baking dish with parchment paper.
- Pour ¾ of pumpkin bread mixture in an even layer on the bottom of the baking dish leaving about ¼ for the marbled topping.
- Evenly pour the cheesecake mixture directly on top of the pumpkin bread layer.
- Drop spoonfuls of the pumpkin bread mixture on top of the cheesecake layer like a checkerboard. Using a butter knife, swirl the cheesecake and bread spoonfuls together for a marbled look, being careful not to swirl the bottom bread layer into the cheesecake.
- Place bars in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until the top is no longer jiggly and a butter knife runs through and comes out clean.
- Remove bars from oven and let cool completely before placing in the fridge for about 1 hour to chill. Slice into 16 bars.
Notes
- Ensure to cool the bars completely before chilling for the best texture.
