Welcoming in fall with this (one bowl) Cream Cheese Swirled Pumpkin Banana Bread….better than your coffee shop. Moist pumpkin banana bread sweetened with maple syrup, swirled with cream cheese, topped with sweet cinnamon sugar, and served warm. Perfect for all of the autumn weekends ahead, and best enjoyed just out of the oven with a generous smear of salted maple butter. So GOOD!
I held off as long as I possibly could. But out of serious demand, I am finally sharing my pumpkin bread recipe with you guys. Some of you may remember a couple of weeks back when I gave a sneak peek at this bread (along with all the test variations) on Instagram. Ever since that day I’ve gotten message, after massage asking when I will be sharing the final recipe. I was going to wait until October to share pumpkin recipes. But after receiving so many messages, I’m realizing that you guys want it now.
Pumpkin Butter Cinnamon Roll Bread.
So here is it, pumpkin bread…but with all my own little twists. Because you all know me, I love to give recipes my own spin.
This isn’t your average pumpkin bread. It’s so much better than what you’d find at the coffee shop. And oh my gosh, it’s incredibly moist, so delicious, and easy too. Just one bowl and pantry ingredients!
I have to say, this bread did take me a while to get just right. I even made it one last time yesterday, just to be sure it was ready to share. But I can confidently say that this pumpkin bread is pretty close to perfect.

Think sweet, super moist (so sorry if you hate that word, but I just don’t know how else to describe it), filled with flavors of pumpkin spice, and swirled with rich cream cheese. The best way to welcome in autumn, right?
One of the keys to this recipe is the bananas. But here’s the thing, you can barely taste the bananas, and that’s kind of the goal. Instead, the bananas help lend moisture and sweetness to the bread without actually having to add in lots of butter and sugar. It works SO well. Better than regular banana-less pumpkin bread.
If I wouldn’t have had so many brown bananas on the counter I never would have thought to add them to this pumpkin bread. But I am so glad I did, it’s a game-changer.

Be sure to use extra brown bananas that are mushy and a couple of days past their prime. This will give you the best results.
I used maple syrup as the sweetener. Mostly because I LOVE the warming flavor it adds to baked goods this time of year. Coconut oil keeps the bread moist, and a touch of cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice add in all the cozy flavors.

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins.
Ok, moving on. Divide the batter between two bread pans, swirl in the cream cheese, then finish each loaf with a light sprinkle of cinnamon sugar. The cream cheese and the cinnamon sugar are not a MUST, but they sure are DELICIOUS.
Now, bake and wait…the absolute hardest part. But the upside is that the house smells incredible as this bread bakes away in the oven.
Is this really needed? No, but as I said above, it adds that extra special finishing touch. Especially if you plan to enjoy this warm. There’s nothing better than warm cream cheese pumpkin bread and a light smear of salty, maple butter.

Live up the season of cozy, and bake this up today, tomorrow, or this weekend…just do it soon. Freeze one loaf for an “emergency” (your family shows up unannounced for Sunday morning brunch). Or be extra generous and make your best friend’s week by wrapping this up and leaving it at their doorstep after work. Trust me, they will love you forever.

To Replace the Banana: use an additional 3/4 cup pumpkin or unsweetened applesauce. But again, I like the bread best with bananas. You do not taste them.

To Freeze: Bake as directed, cool each loaf completely, then tightly wrap in plastic wrap. Freeze in a freezer bag or freezer safe container for up to 4 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge, or on the counter for a few hours.
To Make Gluten Free: Use an equal amount of your favorite gluten free flour blend in place of the all-purpose flour. I recommend Cup4Cup gluten free flour.

Easy Twisted Pumpkin Spice Danish.
I know there are about a million and one pumpkin bread recipes out there. So before I began testing this recipe, I definitely asked myself, do we really need yet another pumpkin bread recipe? Questionable, but the bottom line…the sound of this bread just excited me too much. And when little Asher picked out
I took this as a sign and blocked out all of my other “but this” or “but that’s” and dove into the recipe. And you know something? I’m pretty happy I did because I can confidently say, that this is one of the best loaves of pumpkin bread I’ve ever created.
And yes, I still very much love last year’s cream cheese swirled pumpkin bread. But his bread? It is so different, and both breads are delicious in their own way.
Pumpkin Harvest Loaf Recipe — The Grit And Polish
This is yet another recipe concept I’ve had now for over a year. It all started a year ago last September when I shared my cream cheese swirled pumpkin bread. I shared a set of Instagram story frames showing a few different pumpkin bread variations. I was testing different flavors. In the end, I decided to go with a cream cheese pumpkin bread.
Ever since that day though, I’ve had this concept in the back of my head. I knew it needed chocolate chips, and I knew it needed thick cinnamon swirls throughout. I tested something similar(ish) a year ago but knew I couldn’t share two pumpkin bread recipes in the same season. So I waited. And now here we are, a little over a year later. I really feel this bread is even more amazing than what I had pictured…thanks to just a few tweaks.
This is a “quick bread” meaning it doesn’t require the use of yeast or anything fancy. That said, it does have one key ingredient that makes all the difference…see secret #1 below.

If you love baking with pumpkin during the fall, stock up now with this 12-pack of organic pumpkin. This is not an ad, it’s just what (and how) I buy my canned pumpkin. Plus, I love that I never run out…even when the grocery store has a shortage.
Secret #1, use spiced pumpkin butter, not pumpkin purèe. This IS KEY. Pumpkin butter is more reduced down than pumpkin purèe. It contains less moisture, so it has much more of a concentrated pumpkin flavor. You can use my homemade pumpkin butter or pick some up at Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, your local market, or via Amazon…though I am partial to my homemade recipe. Just make sure your pumpkin butter is spiced for the very best flavor.
Oh, and all you chocolate lovers out there, be sure to add the chocolate chips…a must as well. For very obvious reasons.
Pull Apart Pumpkin Cinnamon Bread.
Ever since I made my pumpkin butter chocolate chip cookies, I’ve been curious to find out what a pumpkin bread made with pumpkin butter would turn out like. I’m excited to report back that it’s so. darn. good! The pumpkin butter makes all the difference.
The very best thing you can bake up this week. Because it’s always a good idea to do some mid-week fall baking, especially when pumpkin butter and cinnamon sugar are all involved.
