Ingredients

6 Persons

  • 140 g
    wholegrain spelt flour
  • 35 g
  • 0.5 tbsp
    baking powder
  • 0.5
    lemon, zest finely grated
  • 1 pinch
    salt
  • 30 g
    unsalted butter, cold, cubed
  • 120 g
    frozen blueberries
  • 1
    egg
  • 50 g
    0% fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp
    water

Preparation

  • 1

    Preheat the oven to 180C/ 350F fan (200C/ 400F non-fan).

  • 2

    Combine the flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, lemon zest and salt in a medium bowl. Add the cubed butter and rub in with your fingertips until no lumps of butter remain. Add in the frozen blueberries and toss to combine.

  • 3

    Combine the egg, yogurt and water in a jug and pour into the bowl. Gently stir together until you get a firm dough.

  • 4

    Tip the dough out onto a piece of baking paper and pat out into a circle around 3cm thick. Cut the dough into 6 wedges and, keeping them on the baking paper, place them onto a baking tray but don’t separate the wedges from each other. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and craggy. Allow to cool then cut along the score lines to separate the scones.
