Frequently Asked Questions
1. Sourdough Lemon Blueberry Dutch Baby
This lemon blueberry sourdough dutch baby is one of our favorite spring recipes. This recipe uses fresh or frozen blueberries and is bursting with citrus flavor thanks to lemon zest and lemon juice. The texture is custard like with crispy edges we absolutely adore, thanks to the cast iron skillet.
As someone who was formerly gluten free, I love that there is no additional flour in this recipe. Plus, it is a great way to use up excess sourdough discard! Enjoy topped with maple syrup or powdered sugar.
2. American Flag Sourdough Fruit Pizza
This American flag sourdough fruit pizza is a fun way to celebrate the patriotic holidays. The sourdough fruit pizza base is made from a sugar cookie dough.
The topping is made of cream cheese frosting and fruit, featuring fresh strawberries and juicy blueberries. Enjoy in any design you prefer!
3. Sourdough Pinwheel Sugar Cookies (Dried blueberries)
These sourdough pinwheel cookies use dried blueberries to color the dough blue. The dried blueberries make a beautiful natural food color which does not reduce when baked.
These cookies do not taste overly ‘blueberry’ and the cookies are soft and fluffy, just as a sourdough sugar cookie should be!
4. Sourdough Blueberry Scones
These soft and flaky sourdough blueberry scones are a delicious spring treat. Bursting with fresh blueberries in every bite, this is a sourdough scone recipe to make on repeat.
Add turbinado sugar to the top of the batter for a little extra ‘crunch’. Best enjoyed with a cup of tea.
5. Lemon Blueberry Sourdough Bread
This viral lemon blueberry sourdough bread is a favorite among many. This bread is bursting with fresh blueberry flavor in every slice.
The bread is soft, fluffy and light (which is perfect for spring time). Some people even enjoy making a cream cheese blueberry sourdough loaf which is equally as delicious. It is a great breakfast treat, afternoon snack or dessert.
6. Mixed Berry Galette with Sourdough (pie) Crust
This recipe has bonus berries, though you can always make it with blueberries only. Picture a jam-filled dessert made with a golden, flaky sourdough pie crust.
Though the dessert looks complicated to make, it could not be easier to throw together (and impress guests!). You can even make the recipe gluten free, which my former gluten free self loves for flexibility!
7. Sourdough Blueberry Rolls
If sourdough cinnamon rolls are a family favorite of yours but want them to be more ‘springy’, try this sourdough blueberry rolls recipe. This recipe is made with a blueberry jam instead of the traditional cinnamon, brown sugar and butter layer.
For extra blueberry goodness, a sweet cream made out of whipped cream and blueberries tops each sourdough blueberry roll. This is a fun twist on cinnamon rolls we can not get enough of.
8. Sourdough Discard Blueberry Muffins
These hearty sourdough blueberry muffins are made with a hefty amount of sourdough discard, cornmeal, bran and blueberries (of course). To jazz up the recipe, top the muffin batter with turbinado sugar (like we do on our sourdough double chocolate muffins) or add a sourdough crumb topping.
If you want a whole wheat sourdough blueberry muffin, swap out some of the all purpose flour with a bit of fresh ground wheat berries. Break out your muffin pan and leftover sourdough starter, and enjoy!
9. Gluten Free Sourdough Blueberry Muffins
Made with a gluten free starter, these fluffy sourdough blueberry muffins are made without wheat. The result is a soft crumb, golden brown top and bites of blueberry throughout.
This recipe leverages butter, eggs and sourdough discard for a moist texture. For best results, enjoy with a pat of butter and an extra splash of vanilla extract.
10. Sourdough Blueberry Bread (Made in the air fryer)
One thing is for sure, we love using the air fryer to make sourdough recipes (just see these sourdough mac and cheese bites or these sourdough mozzarella sticks to see why!).
This air fryer sourdough blueberry bread is a treat. If making this sweet treat during the summer, you will not have to heat up your kitchen with this air fryer sourdough recipe. The result is a hearty quick bread, perfect for rounding out a breakfast with eggs and sausage.
11. Sourdough Blueberry Yogurt Muffins
Like our sourdough lemon poppyseed yogurt cake, these moist muffins are divine thanks to the combination of yogurt, sweet blueberries and active sourdough starter. They are tangy, moist and absolutely delicious.
As we are talking about the best sourdough blueberry recipes, fresh blueberries are the star of the show within this recipe (of course!) And as an added bonus lemon zest rounds out the recipe to ring in the spring season.
