A delightful twist on traditional sourdough, this bread combines tangy lemon with sweet blueberries for a refreshing and flavorful loaf.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups sourdough starter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Combine the sourdough starter, water, and olive oil in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Prepare the dry ingredients by mixing the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, sugar, salt, lemon zest, and lemon juice in another bowl.
  3. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients until a dough starts to form.
  4. Fold in the blueberries gently until evenly distributed.
  5. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  6. Let the dough rise in a greased bowl, covered, in a warm place for about 120 minutes.
  7. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  8. Shape the dough into a loaf and place it in a greased loaf pan, letting it rise for another 30 minutes.
  9. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  10. Cool the bread in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Ensure your sourdough starter is active and bubbly for the best results. For longer storage, slice the bread and freeze for up to three months.
