Scones were never an easy subject for me. If you’re reading my blog from time to time you most probably know about my many failures in the matter. Well, not anymore! I made this awesome scones with feta and herbs some time ago and it turned out perfectly yummy. I assumed that my bad luck is over but still… I was a bit scared. After so many failures with fruit scones I didn’t feel like trying again. I know that you may be thinking – scones are easy to make. Not for me. I can prepare some crazy complicated meals, but scones… not so much. This time I took a risk, if you can call “a risk” a recipe created by an amazing baker. I’m talking here about Monet, if you don’t know her blog yet, check it out. I’ve tried many of her sweet treats and I was always satisfied. I replaced few ingredients but only because I didn’t have everything needed at home. You can use two kinds of yogurt or just one or half half if you’re living in a country where you can get one (I haven’t seen it in Berlin). I’m telling you, this scones are amazing. I made 6 and they disappeared just like this. Ok I live with Tomasz, so I kind of know how they disappeared 😉
You will need for 6:
- 225g all purpose flour
- 3 tsp baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 50g butter, cubed
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
- ¼ cup greek yogurt
- ¼ cup soy yogurt
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- 1 egg yolk and a little hazelnut milk, beaten together (for glaze)
In a bowl place flour, baking powder and salt. Mix the ingredients and add a butter cut in small cubes and rub it into the flour mix. Add thyme, yogurts (you can choose one), sugar, blueberries and mix everything with a wooden spoon. Then start to knead it delicately. Form a round shape about 2 cm high. Cut round shapes using a form or a glass. Brush each scone with an egg yolk mixed with milk.
Bake in 200*C (400*F) for about 15 minutes.
Enjoy, Marta

Oh wow! Gorgeous photos! I went through a stage of making scones a while back, though never mastered them. (I feel like they should be incredibly easy, and yet I never get them quite right!). This looks like a good end-of-summer baking project to use up all our local berries in the fridge! Thanks for sharing!

Hi Marta! Stumbled across your page a few days ago and since then have been checking back multiple times a day to see if there is something new. Amazing photography & lovely stories! Just a quick question because I have gotten completely lost in this: I saw that your page has a bilingual option in the top right corner – just wondering which plug-in you use for that? Would be amazing if you could help me out there! Thaank you und auf bald hier 😉
