Time 1h10m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ cup butter, at room temperature
½ cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
¼ cup plain yogurt
1 cup packed finely grated carrots
1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
¼ cup white sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon bourbon whiskey
1 teaspoon grated orange zest

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Sift 1 1/4 cup flour, baking powder, pumpkin spice, and baking soda together in a bowl.
  • Combine butter and brown sugar in a bowl; beat together with an electric mixer on low until light and fluffy. Whisk in eggs and yogurt; beat in carrots until well mixed. Add flour mixture gradually with the electric mixer until batter is combined.
  • Beat cream cheese, white sugar, egg, 3 tablespoons flour, bourbon, and orange zest together in a bowl.
  • Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan; spread with a spatula until even. Spoon cream cheese mixture onto the batter; smooth with the back of the spoon until even. Pour remaining batter onto the cream cheese mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
