Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp natural gelling agent
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ¾ cup plant-based milk
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (natural)

Filling

  • ½ cup plant-based cream cheese
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract (natural)

Add-ins

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling: Soften the plant-based cream cheese in a bowl, then mix in 1 tablespoon of sugar and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (natural). Stir until smooth and creamy, then set aside.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, natural gelling agent, sugar, and salt to form the dry mix for the bread base.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat plant-based milk, vegetable oil, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and vanilla extract (natural) until well blended. Gradually add this wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined to avoid overmixing.
  4. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold fresh blueberries into the batter, being careful not to crush them so the fruit remains in intact pockets throughout the bread.
  5. Assemble and Bake: Pour half of the batter into a lined or greased loaf pan. Dollop the cream cheese filling over the batter and spread evenly. Pour the remaining batter on top and gently swirl the cream cheese with a knife to create marble patterns. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • Use fresh blueberries to avoid watery batter and purple discoloration.
  • Handle the batter gently and mix only until combined to keep bread tender.
  • Ensure cream cheese and liquids are at room temperature for smooth blending.
  • Swirl cream cheese gently to create distinct pockets without overmixing.
  • Check doneness with a toothpick to avoid overbaking and dry bread.
