• 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup fluted tube pan (such as Bundt).

2. 2

   Whisk flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, salt, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice together in a large bowl.

3. 3

   Whisk pumpkin, brown sugar, and butter together in a separate large bowl until combined. Whisk in sour cream until smooth. Add eggs, maple syrup, heavy cream, and vanilla extract and whisk until completely incorporated.

4. 4

   Combine flour mixture with pumpkin mixture until just combined.

5. 5

   Add cream cheese to a medium bowl: beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until smooth. Beat in sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined and filling mixture is smooth.

6. 6

   Pour ½ of the cake batter into the prepared pan. Spoon filling over batter. Pour remaining cake batter over filling: smooth using a spatula.

7. 7

   Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 55 to 65 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes. Tap the pan firmly a few times, then shake it gently to loosen the cake. Place a wire rack over the pan and invert to release cake onto the rack. Let cool completely before serving.
