Ingredients
Scale
- 500g bread flour
- 350ml room temperature water
- 100g active sourdough starter
- 10g salt
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/3 cup softened cream cheese
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey (for glaze)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (for glaze)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine bread flour, water, and active sourdough starter. Let rest for 30 minutes before adding salt. Knead until incorporated and let it rise for 4-6 hours, performing stretch-and-fold techniques every 30 minutes.
- Prepare the filling by mixing cream cheese, lemon zest, and sugar until smooth.
- Gently fold in blueberries during the final stretch-and-fold.
- Shape the dough into a rectangle, add the cream cheese mixture in the center, and roll it up like a jelly roll.
- Place seam-side up in a banneton and refrigerate overnight for an extended rise.
- Preheat your Dutch oven to 250°C (482°F). Bake covered for 20 minutes, then uncover and reduce temperature to 220°C (428°F) for an additional 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
- For the glaze, mix honey with lemon juice and brush over warm bread.
