1/4 cup canola oil

In a bowl add pumpkin, 1 cup white sugar, brown sugar and 3 of the egg whites--stir. Add milk and oil--mix with a spoon until smooth. Add flour, baking powder, pumpkin spice and salt--stir until moistened--set batter aside. In a separate bowl add cream cheese, 2 TBSP white sugar, 1 egg white--beat with a wire whisk until blended. Grease a bread loaf pan. Pour 1/2 of the pumpkin batter in the loaf pan. Pour all of the cream cheese mixture on top of the pumpkin batter. Pour the rest of the pumpkin batter on top of the cream cheese mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes--test with a toothpick for doneness. Cool 20 minutes, then loosen edges with a knife. Dump it upside down on top of a serving plate. Cool completely, then refrigerate.
