Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Mix well to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and water until smooth and well blended.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
In another bowl, prepare the cream cheese filling by beating the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Pour half of the pumpkin batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
Gently dollop the cream cheese mixture on top of the pumpkin batter, then use a knife or skewer to swirl it into the batter, creating a ribbon effect.
Pour the remaining pumpkin batter on top and smooth the surface with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve the Pumpkin Ribbon Bread. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
