Step-by-Step Instructions for Sourdough Blueberry Buckle
- In a medium bowl, combine white sugar, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Cube cold butter and mix everything together using your fingers or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Refrigerate the crumble while you prepare the batter.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a round or square baking pan with butter or non-stick spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set this aside for later.
- In another large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Add the egg, mixing until just combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the sourdough starter, milk, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Gradually add this mixture to the creamed butter and sugar, mixing on low speed just until combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture in two halves, gently mixing until just combined. Avoid over-mixing.
- Toss your blueberries with a sprinkle of flour in a bowl. Gently fold the floured blueberries into the batter.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the blueberries on top and pour the remaining batter over them. Finish with the reserved crumble topping.
- Transfer to the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Allow to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
