It's officially Fall, which means it's pumpkin season! And what better way to get in the spirit than with TWO new pumpkin recipes! No need to head to the drive through of your favorite coffee spot to buy an expensive PSL; make this fall favorite at home in your slow cooker. This makes a lot and leftovers stores wonderfully in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Then pair it with a delicious pumpkin bread that has a layer of cream cheese right in the middle and comes together in minutes. And the best part? Both of these recipes use real pumpkin instead of the flavoring.

Instructions
Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bread
Preheat oven to 350º. In a large bowl, mix together pumpkin puree, sugar, oil, vanilla, cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ginger and cloves. Add flour, baking soda and salt, and fold with spatula or stir gently with a spoon until just combined; set aside.
For the filling, in a medium bowl, combine egg, sugar, cream cheese, vanilla and flour. Whisk or beat until well blended and creamy. Set aside.
Spread half of the pumpkin bread batter as evenly into a prepared loaf pan. Spoon cream cheese mixture on top of pumpkin batter layer and gently spread. Add remaining pumpkin batter over the cream cheese layer. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a loaf comes out clean. Cool bread in pan for 10 minutes, then remove to a rack and cool completely.
Slow Cooker Pumpkin Spice Lattes
To your slow cooker, add the coffee, pumpkin, half and half, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, vanilla and sugar. Stir. Cover and cook on high for 45-60 minutes, or until heated through. Stir, and serve topped with whipped cream, nutmeg or caramel sauce.
