A unique combination of tangy sourdough and sweet blueberries, topped with a zesty lemon glaze. Perfect for brunch or family gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups active sourdough starter
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the sourdough starter and warm water.
  2. Stir in the salt and sugar, ensuring it’s well combined.
  3. Gradually add the flour, mixing until the dough comes together into a shaggy mass.
  4. Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, taking care not to crush them.
  5. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let the dough rest at room temperature for about 240 minutes, or until it has doubled in size.
  6. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a standard loaf pan.
  7. Shape the risen dough into a loaf and place it in the prepared pan. Let it rise again for another 60 minutes.
  8. Once the dough has risen, bake it for 40-45 minutes or until the crust turns a golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  9. To prepare the lemon glaze, mix the powdered sugar with lemon juice and lemon zest until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled bread before serving.

Notes

For best results, use a bubbly and active sourdough starter and fresh seasonal blueberries. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
