Blueberry Cream Cheese Loaf 🍇🧀

Whoever shared that blueberry cream cheese loaf recipe the other day… THANK YOU! I’m officially obsessed — it’s heavenly! 🥳 Soft, fluffy bread swirled with sweet blueberries and creamy chunks of cream cheese — perfect for breakfast, brunch, or an indulgent snack.

Ingredients

  • 100 g active sourdough starter
  • 440 g all-purpose flour
  • 260 g water
  • 6 g salt
  • 1+ cup blueberries
  • 8+ oz cream cheese, cubed

Instructions

1. Prepare the Dough

  1. In a large bowl, mix the active sourdough starter with water until dissolved.
  2. Add the flour and salt, mixing until a sticky dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough for 5–7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

2. Bulk Fermentation

  1. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let it rest for 3–4 hours at room temperature until it doubles in size.
  2. During this time, perform gentle stretch and folds every 30–60 minutes to strengthen the dough.

3. Incorporate Blueberries & Cream Cheese

  1. Gently fold in the blueberries and cubed cream cheese, making sure not to crush the berries.

4. Shape & Second Rise

  1. Shape the dough into a loaf and place it in a greased loaf pan.
  2. Cover and let it rise for 1–2 hours until puffy and slightly domed.

5. Bake

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Bake the loaf for 35–40 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  3. Cool completely before slicing to preserve the creamy blueberry swirls.

Tips for Success

  • Use fresh or frozen blueberries — just don’t thaw frozen ones completely to avoid excess moisture.
  • Keep cream cheese cubes chilled before folding into the dough to prevent melting.
  • Let the loaf cool completely — it slices cleaner and the flavors settle beautifully.

Serving Ideas

  • Toast slices with a bit of butter or cream cheese spread.
  • Serve with fresh fruit for brunch.
  • Pair with coffee or tea for a decadent snack.
