Ingredients
  

For the bread

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose gluten-free flour blend (I used Better Batter)
  • 1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum omit if your blend already contains it
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose gluten-free flour blend (I used Better Batter)
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum omit if your blend already contains it
  • 3/8 cup cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs (at room temperature)
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sour cream (at room temperature)
  • 5 ounces blueberries (fresh or frozen; don’t defrost if frozen)

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (about 160°C). Grease and line a standard 9-inch x 5-inch loaf pan with unbleached parchment paper and set it aside.
  • Make the topping by mixing some flour, butter, and sugar.
  • In a bowl, combine the wet and dry ingredients for the bread. Mix until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the blueberries to avoid mushing them.

Baking

  • Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Bake for about an hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes

Store in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for up to three months. For the best texture, use room temperature eggs and sour cream. A sprinkle of cinnamon and swapping blueberries for other fruits can give a nice twist.
