Description

A delightful quick bread that combines the tangy taste of sourdough with fresh blueberries and zesty lemon, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup sourdough starter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
  2. In a bowl, mix the sourdough starter, granulated sugar, melted butter, eggs, and milk until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For best results, avoid overmixing the batter. Fresh blueberries work best, but frozen can be used without thawing.
