Got a friend coming round for a cuppa? Pop a batch of these deliciously fluffy Blueberry + Yoghurt Sugar Free Scones in the oven. They are ridiculously easy. But, you’ll be the best friend ever… cos seriously YUM!
These scones are made using yoghurt, with just a smidgen of butter. It makes them lighter than traditional scones, but no less delicious. Plus, there’s no need to add any sugar or sweetener, because the blueberries make them deliciously sweet, the natural way.
Full disclosure: once you wait for the oven to warm up and bake the scones, the recipe takes about 45 minutes all up. It’s not the quickest recipe on the blog. But it’s not all bad. It takes about 10 minutes to get them into the oven. So, on my estimate, you’ve just landed 30 minutes Netflix time. BOOM!
Extra time to drool over Harvey Spector AND a batch of totally delicious scones. It’s time to get baking! If you give my Blueberry + Yoghurt Sugar Free Scones a shot, make sure you let me know what you think in the comments below (or we can just talk Harvey, totally okay with that too).

Blueberry + Yoghurt Sugar Free Scones
- Cook Time: 45 minutes
- Total Time: 45 minutes
- Yield: 8 scones 1x
- Category: Snack
- Method: Oven
Description
With fresh blueberries and yoghurt these easy scones are deliciously sweet without any added sugar and only a smidgen of butter.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of plain flour (regular or gluten free)
- 2 tbs butter
- ½ cup Greek or natural yoghurt
- 2 tbs milk and extra for brushing
- 1 tsp vanilla powder or extract
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 220C/425F and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Add the flour and butter to a mixing bowl and then use your fingers to rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
- Make a well in the centre and add in the yoghurt, milk and vanilla. Stir until combined, then gently fold in the blueberries.
- Transfer the dough to the lined baking tray – it might be sticky, but don’t worry!- using a spatula or the back of a spoon to shape the dough into a circle. Next, use a knife to score the dough into 8 slices (being careful not to slice all the way through). Brush the top of the dough with a couple of teaspoons of extra milk.
- Bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes until golden and a skewer comes out cleanly.
- Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 5 minutes. Then slice, slather with butter and enjoy!

Hi, I'm Rani! 
can you use self raising flour?
Hi Shae!
Unfortunately, I haven’t tested them with self raising flour. I’m pretty sure it would still work, but your scones would raise a lot more. If you try it I’d love to know how you go.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Rani x
it worked well with s/r flour, thanks 🙂
Oh I’m so glad Shae! Thank you so much for letting me know.
Have an awesome day.

In the recipe you say self raising flour but in the comments you say you haven’t tried self raising flour. Can you please clarify what. Flour to use?
Hi Lisa – I am so sorry! The scones are made with plain (sometimes called all-purpose) flour. I apologise there was an error in the recipe which I have now updated. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
have you used whole wheat flour?
Hey Sue
Unfortunately I haven’t tested whole wheat flour with this recipe, but I actually think it would work fine.
If you give it a go, let me know how you go.
Thank you so much for stopping by.

Hi
Can I use oat flour ?
Hi There! Unfortunately, I haven’t tested the recipe with oat flour. I suspect the scones would not raise the same way as they do when you used self-raising flour. If you do end up giving it a try, let me know how you go.
Love these scones… moist & delicious….. glad you said not to worry when it was sticky… it all comes together in the oven!!

Thank you so much for the review Sandra, It makes my heart so happy to hear you enjoyed the scones. Here’s to many more scones in your future. Rani x
I just sat down to a bakery scone. I hadn’t anticipated sugar glaze but took it off. Being diabetic I always thought scones were low in sugar Not. I can’t wait to try this recipe.
I hope you enjoy. It’s one of our biggest family favourites. Thanks for checking out You Totally Got This. Rani
