This Lemon Cream Cheese Bread perfectly combines a bright, zesty lemon loaf with a rich, velvety cheesecake center. The sour cream in the batter keeps the bread incredibly moist, while the sweetened cream cheese swirl adds a decadent, marbled middle. It’s a refined treat that feels more like a dessert than a typical quick bread, making it a standout for brunch or afternoon tea.
