Strawberry Greek Yogurt Scones

Delightfully tender and naturally tangy, these Strawberry Greek Yogurt Scones combine fresh strawberries with creamy Greek yogurt for a wholesome and flavorful treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon milk (for brushing)
  • 2 tablespoons coarse sugar (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, egg, and vanilla extract.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chopped strawberries carefully, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  7. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape into a 1-inch thick round.
  8. Cut the dough into 8 wedges and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Brush the tops with milk and sprinkle with coarse sugar if using.
  10. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  11. Allow to cool slightly before serving warm or at room temperature.

Notes

For a richer flavor, serve warm scones with honey or clotted cream. You can also substitute strawberries with blueberries or raspberries for variety.
