Soft and tender homemade yogurt scones made with only three simple ingredients. These quick and easy scones bake up lightly golden and fluffy, making them perfect for breakfast, tea time, or a simple snack.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour and sugar.
  3. Add the yogurt and mix until a soft dough forms.
  4. Lightly flour a clean surface and gently knead the dough just until smooth.
  5. Shape the dough into a round disc about 1 inch thick.
  6. Cut the dough into wedges or use a biscuit cutter to make round scones.
  7. Place the scones onto the prepared baking tray.
  8. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until lightly golden on top.
  9. Allow the scones to cool slightly before serving warm.

Notes

  • Add chocolate chips, raisins, or dried cranberries for a sweeter variation.
  • Mix in shredded cheese or fresh herbs for savory scones.
  • Brush the tops with milk before baking for a shinier finish.
  • Add vanilla extract or lemon zest for extra flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • Refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Warm slightly before serving to restore softness.
