Ingredients
8 servings
- •1 ¼ cups whole wheat flour
- •1 cup all-purpose flour
- •¼ cup white sugar
- •2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- •1 teaspoon ground cardamom
- •1 teaspoon lemon zest
- •½ teaspoon baking soda
- •½ teaspoon salt
- •¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- •½ cup unsalted butter, frozen
- •½ cup whole-milk Greek yogurt
- •3 tablespoons heavy cream
- •1 egg
- •2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- •1 cup frozen blueberries, unthawed
- •1 egg
- •1 teaspoon water
- •¼ cup frozen blueberries, thawed
- •⅔ cup confectioners' sugar

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, cardamom, lemon zest, baking soda, salt, and ginger in a large bowl. Grate in frozen butter using a box grater and toss until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Mix yogurt, cream, egg, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl. Add to the flour mixture to form a crumbly dough, stirring just until no dry clumps of flour remain. Stir in unthawed blueberries.
- Pour crumbly dough onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Press dough together firmly until it forms a cohesive 8-inch circle. Flatten top to ensure the circle is even. Cut into 8 triangular pieces. Arrange the pieces 1 inch apart on the same parchment-lined pan.
- Whisk egg and water together in a small bowl for the egg wash. Gently brush over the top of each scone.
- Bake scones in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- Use the back of a wooden spoon to press thawed blueberries through a fine-mesh strainer into a medium bowl to extract 2 or 3 tablespoons of juice. Discards skins and seeds. Whisk confectioners' sugar and lemon juice into the blueberry juice until smooth. Drizzle blueberry glaze over cooled scones.
