Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together ¼ cup white sugar, ¼ cup brown sugar, ½ cup all-purpose flour, and ½ teaspoon cinnamon. Cut in 4 tablespoons of cold, cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Chill in the refrigerator.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking pan to prevent sticking.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and ½ teaspoon of salt.
- Cream together ½ cup butter and 1 cup sugar until pale and fluffy. Add in 1 large egg, mixing until incorporated.
- Whisk together 1 cup sourdough starter, ½ cup milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and the zest of 1 lemon. Pour into the creamed mixture, blending gently.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients on low speed until just combined.
- Toss 1 cup fresh blueberries with 1 tablespoon flour to coat. This helps prevent sinking.
- Spread half of the batter in the prepared pan, sprinkle with half blueberries, dollop and spread remaining batter, scattering the rest of the blueberries on top.
- Distribute the chilled crumble topping over the batter.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes
Use cold butter for the topping to maintain flakiness; avoid overmixing batter to keep it tender. Dust frozen blueberries with flour before adding to the batter to prevent sinking.
