Cream Cheese Cinnamon Chip Pumpkin Bread

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Combine dry ingredients (flour through cloves) in a large bowl. Then add in pumpkin, butter, egg and water, mixing until just moistened. Stir in cinnamon chips.

Pour all but 2 cups of the batter into a greased and floured 9×5 loaf pan. Set aside while you combine all of the cream cheese swirl ingredients in a medium sized bowl.

Pour cream cheese mixture over pumpkin batter then top with reserved pumpkin batter. Cut through batter with a knife several times to create a swirl effect.

Bake at 350 F for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes then remove from pan.
