Ingredients

2 eggs, divided
1/2 cup (1/2 of 8-oz. tub) PHILADELPHIA Brown Sugar & Cinnamon Cream Cheese Spread
1 cup milk, divided
2 Tbsp. maple-flavored or pancake syrup
3 cups challah bread (egg bread) cubes (1 inch)
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 cup plus 1 Tbsp. sugar, divided
1-3/4 cups flour
1 Tbsp. pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup canned pumpkin
1/3 cup oil

Steps:

Heat oven to 350ºF.
Mix 1 egg, cream cheese spread, 3/4 cup milk and syrup in large bowl until blended. Add bread; stir until evenly moistened. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Meanwhile, mix cinnamon and 1 Tbsp. sugar until blended; reserve for later use. Combine flour, pumpkin spice, baking soda, salt and remaining sugar. Whisk remaining egg and milk with pumpkin and oil in medium bowl until blended. Add flour mixture; stir just until moistened. (Batter will be lumpy.)
Spoon batter into 12 muffin pan cups sprayed with cooking spray; top with bread mixture. Sprinkle with reserved cinnamon sugar.
Bake 28 to 30 min. or until toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool in pan 5 min. Remove to wire rack; cool completely.
