Description

Blueberry Cream Cheese Bread is a tender, fruity, and delightfully creamy plant-based bread filled with juicy blueberries and swirled with rich cream cheese (plant-based). This moist, naturally sweetened bread offers a perfect balance of sweetness, softness, and subtle tanginess, ideal for breakfast, dessert, or an indulgent snack.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons natural baking powder
  • ½ cup natural sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup plant-based milk
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)

Cream Cheese Filling

  • 8 ounces plant-based cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons natural sugar
  • 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon natural gelling agent

Additional Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: Whisk together the all-purpose flour, natural baking powder, natural sugar, and salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the plant-based milk with apple cider vinegar and natural vanilla extract and let sit to create a light buttermilk texture. Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
  2. Make the Cream Cheese Filling: In another bowl, combine the plant-based cream cheese with natural sugar, natural vanilla extract, and natural gelling agent. Whip the mixture until smooth and creamy to achieve a spreadable consistency.
  3. Layer the Batter and Filling: Pour half of the batter into a greased 9×5-inch loaf pan. Dollop spoonfuls of the cream cheese filling evenly over the batter. Sprinkle fresh blueberries evenly on top. Pour the remaining batter over the cream cheese and blueberries and gently tap the pan to level the mixture.
  4. Bake to Perfection: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the loaf for 50 to 60 minutes. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown with a sweet aroma.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. This helps the cream cheese swirl set properly and ensures clean slices.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for smooth mixing and even baking.
  • Gently fold in blueberries at the end to prevent purple streaks in the batter.
  • Check the bread after 50 minutes to avoid overbaking and dryness.
  • For an attractive marbled effect, swirl the cream cheese filling with a knife before baking.
  • Use a standard 9×5-inch loaf pan for best results with this batter amount.
