Apple Cream Cheese Bread

I mixed up this bread this morning so that the kids could have it for afternoon snack today. It was SO delicious and the kids ate it up! I added oats to the top for a little texture and loved the addition.

Apple Cream Cheese Bread
Recipe from My Retro Kitchen

2 apples
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/3 cup flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 pinch nutmeg

6 oz. cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Grate the apples (skin and all) into a large mixing bowl. Add the oil, cup of sugar, eggs and vanilla and mix well to combine. Without mixing, add the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Carefully fold the dry ingredients into the wet, and pour into the prepared loaf pan.

Combine the cream cheese, sugar and egg with a fork. Pour over the top of the batter, and use a knife to swirl the two layers together.

Bake loosely covered with foil for 30 minutes. Then remove the foil and continue to bake an additional 20-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean with a few crumbs attached. Allow to cool fully before slicing.
