Notes
Be careful not to spread the cream cheese filling too close to the edges. Otherwise it may be noticeable on the outside of the bread.
To change things up, chocolate chips can be added to the filling or batter. The top of the bread can also be topped with a low carb streusel made of chopped nuts, cinnamon, sweetener, and a little low carb flour.
