The Best Dessert Sourdough Bread Recipe!

As a passionate sourdough baker, I am always thinking of new and exciting recipes to create. When the summer berry season arrived, my garden was bursting with juicy, ripe berries! I knew I had to give it a go in created a sourdough bread incorporating these fresh berries. After a few trials, I felt it needed a bit more sweetness that what the berries were offering. That is why I decided to add white chocolate to the recipe. The result? The most amazing dessert sourdough that ever was!

Berry Sourdough Variations:

Raspberry

Some raspberries lean more towards the sweeter side, with a mild tartness that complements the sweetness perfectly. On the other hand, there are raspberries that have a more pronounced tartness. These tart raspberries add a zingy and slightly acidic element, but are balanced by the sweetness of the white chocolate in this berry sourdough recipe.

Blueberry 🫐

Blueberries are small, round berries that are known for their vibrant blue color and sweet-tart flavor. When you take a bite into a ripe blueberry, you will experience a burst of sweetness that is balanced by a mild tanginess.

Blackberry

When you take your first bite of a blackberry, you are greeted with a burst of sweetness that is perfectly balanced with a subtle tartness. The flavor is rich and complex, with hints of earthiness and a touch of floral sweetness.

Technically cherries aren’t berries, but they work very well with this recipe! When you take a bite into a ripe cherry, you are greeted with a burst of natural sweetness. The taste of cherries can vary depending on the variety and ripeness. Sweet cherries tend to have a higher sugar content, resulting in a sweeter flavor, while tart cherries have a more pronounced tanginess.
