- 1/3 cup cream cheese (softened)
- 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 the bread flour, water, and sourdough starter. Allow to rest for 30 minutes.
- Add salt and knead until well combined. Cover and let rise for 4-6 hours, performing stretch-and-fold every 30 minutes.
- Prepare the filling by mixing cream cheese, lemon zest, and sugar in a separate bowl until smooth.
- Gently fold in blueberries during the final stretch-and-fold of the dough.
- Shape the dough into a rectangle on a floured surface, spread the cream cheese mixture on top, then roll it up tightly.
- Place seam-side up in a banneton and refrigerate overnight (8-12 hours).
- Preheat your oven with a Dutch oven at 250°C (482°F). Bake the dough for 20 minutes with the lid on; then lower to 220°C (428°F) and bake uncovered for another 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
