Ingredients

Scones:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • cup white sugar

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup lemon yogurt

  • ¼ cup melted butter

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Glaze:

  • ½ cup confectioners' sugar

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • ½ teaspoon lemon zest

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a large baking sheet.

  2. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, 1 teaspoon lemon zest, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.

  3. Mix together lemon yogurt, butter, and egg in a separate bowl. Stir yogurt mixture into flour mixture until just moistened. Fold blueberries into mixture.

  4. Drop batter by heaping tablespoons 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 15 to 18 minutes.

  6. Meanwhile, stir together confectioners' sugar, lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest in a small bowl until glaze is smooth.

  7. Drizzle glaze over warm scones and serve.

Cook's Notes:

You can use fresh or frozen blueberries.

Be careful not to overmix the batter or the scones will come out dense and hard.
