Preparation

Step 1

To make the streusel topping, combine the sugar, salt and cinnamon in a
bowl. Stir in the melted butter and then the flour. Mix well and set
aside.

To make the cream cheese layer, blend the ingredients with a hand mixer,
stand mixer or food processor until thoroughly combined and free of
lumps. Set aside.

Make the bread dough by combining together the butter, sugar, egg, milk,
vanilla and pumpkin and mix until thoroughly combined. In a separate
bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon,
spice and salt. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and stir just
until combined.

Pour half the bread batter into a greased loaf pan, add the cream cheese
mixture and swirl into the bread batter with a knife. Top with the
remaining bread batter and sprinkle on the streusel topping. Bake in a
pre-heated 350 degree oven for approximately 1 hour or until a cake
tester comes out clean. Makes approximately 8 servings.
