This is one of my favorite sweet treats to make in the spring and summer. These scones are packed with fresh lemon and raspberry, and a secret ingredient, making them super moist and so delicious.
Some people hear scones, and head for the hills, and I get it. Often, they turn out dry, flavorless and way too crumbly. But not these scones. They’re made with Greek yogurt, and the results are perfectly moist and fluffy. The fresh flavors are perfect for the season, and the three step recipe is a no brainer that comes together in 20 minutes. Plus these are drop scones, so no messy counters and sticky rolling pins.
I whipped these scones up for Mother’s Day Sunday this year, and the only thing that would have made them better would have been sharing them with my mom (perhaps with a mimosa!) Give them a shot! You won’t regret it.

How much yogurt there is no measurement on recipe
You’re so right, sorry about that oversight! You need 1 cup of yogurt or Greek yogurt. Recipe has been updated!
