This loaf was INCREDIBLE. Loaded with blueberries and the lemon flavor came thru. I used a recipe by That Sourdough Gal with some minor tweaks
https://thatsourdoughgal.com/the-best-lemon-blueberry-artisan-sourdough-bread-recipe/
My tweaks:
– I used normal starter instead of the sweet starter in the recipe because I didn’t read the recipe in full before baking lol.
– I used two bags of freeze dried blueberries (generic Target brand, 2 oz each). One bag in the juice of a large lemon and incorporated it into the dough during 2nd stretch and fold (as stated in the recipe). Next time I will spend more time mixing them into the dough because they clumped together a bit. Then I incorporated the second bag of blueberries during the final shaping. I was afraid the dough would get too wet if I soaked all of the blueberries.
– I baked at 450F for 35min covered, then turned off the oven and left it in uncovered for additional 5min. The belly had a lot of exposed blueberries so I didn’t want the sugar to burn!
I will definitely be making this loaf again and again. It is sooo delicious. Highly recommend making the lemon glaze in the recipe as well. Absolutely SCRUMPTIOUS!

I’m salivating
This looks insane
The perfect amount of inclusions!! Wow 🤩
Thank you for posting this recipe. I haven’t like my method for making a blueberry/lemon loaf. I’ll try this one.
Gourmet! 😍
Looks AMAZING!
I was trying to figure out how your ratios weren’t completely off with that many blueberries. Then I saw freeze dried. That was a low key brilliant and saved your loaf.
Looks amazing !
dang there’s more blueberry than dough haha it looks amazing
What a coincidence! I literally just tucked my first blueberry lemon loaf into the fridge for a nap before baking tomorrow! I hope mine looks as good as yours 🤞
That looks so good
That looks beautiful. I made a blueberry lemon recently and I was only mostly happy with it.
Wow!! Definitely doing that one soon!
Looks great.
I’m drooling.
