  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (white)
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (vanilla-flavored)
  • 1 large egg

We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F.

  • Step 2: Lightly grease a large cookie sheet or line with parchment paper and set aside.

  • Step 3: In a large bowl, mix together both flours until well blended. Remove 1/4 cup white flour blend to use for dusting work surface later (you will be left with 2 1/4 cups flour blend in bowl). To the 2 1/4 cup flour add the sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix well.

  • Step 4: In a medium bowl, whisk together yogurt, egg, melted butter, lemon juice and zest. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix using a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms. If dough is too stiff, add a couple tablespoons milk. If too sticky, add a bit more flour.

  • Step 5: Gently fold in blueberries, being careful not to squish them.

  • Step 6: Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface (use reserved 1/4 cup white flour mixture).

  • Step 7: Divide dough in half and form each half into a ball.

  • Step 8: Place both dough balls on prepared cookie sheet. Pat each ball into a 1-inch-thick circle (about 6 to 7 inches in diameter). Using a large, sharp knife, cut each circle into 6 wedges, but do not separate them. Brush tops lightly with light cream or milk (this helps with browning).

  • Step 9: Bake 16 to 18 minutes, until puffed up and golden.

  • Step 10: Transfer scones to a wire rack to cool slightly.

  • Step 11: Best when served warm.
