Recipe: Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bread in a Jar

As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualified purchases. 

Fall is just right around the corner and if you’re anything like me, you love ANYTHING pumpkin. Pumpkin lattes, pumpkin chai tea, pumpkin pie, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin cheesecake (super simple 5 min recipe I love), pumpkin pretzels (super fun for the kids) and one of my favorites pumpkin cream cheese bread. On top of loving pumpkin, eating anything out of a mason jar is just fun right? This is a fun recipe to make and it’s pretty much fool proof!

Get comfy in a pair of these comfy lounge pajamas you can purchase at Amazon then enjoy making this and get the kiddos involved too, they’ll love it!
