Step 1

First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 9-inch by 5-inch bread pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, melted coconut oil, vanilla, and pumpkin purée. Stir together.

Step 3

Then, sift in the flour, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, baking soda, sea salt, and coconut sugar. Stir together.

Step 4

Then, make the filling. Add the softened cream cheese, sugar, and egg yolk to a clean mixing bowl. Use an electric mixer to beat until completely creamy and smooth.

Step 5

Assemble the bread. Pour ¾ of the pumpkin bread batter into the parchment lined bread pan.

Step 6

Spread the filling mixture on top. Smooth into an even layer.

Step 7

Top with the remaining pumpkin bread batter. Smooth into an even layer.

Step 8

Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.

Step 9

Finally, remove the pan from the oven. Allow the bread to fully cool before slicing.
