Perhaps the loaf cake is the baking world’s unsung hero. They’re deliciously simple and ideal for serving at any time of day. Cake for breakfast? Sign me up! Lemon Cream Cheese Bread is a delightfully dense loaf cake with a swirl of luscious cream cheese in the center. Yes, it’s as great as it sounds!The batter includes the standard baking ingredients, the zest of two lemons, and a dash of lemon juice.
Once that’s all mixed up, start working on the cream cheese swirl. This will be created using a block of softened cream cheese and a touch of powdered sugar for sweetness. The batter and cream cheese mixture are stacked in the loaf pan, then swirled together to create a stunning marble effect.The loaf bakes for just more than an hour, and you’ll want to cover it with foil at the end to keep the top from browning.
The hardest phase is definitely letting the bread cool, but this is necessary for the cream cheese swirl to harden. Once chilled, slice it and dig in. You’ll realize the magic after your first bite!
