Method:

Preheat
the oven to 200°C. Grease a large baking sheet with non-stick spray or line with
baking paper.

1. Sift
the dry ingredients three times, then mix in the sugar. Rub the butter in until
the mixture looks like fine breadcrumbs. Lightly fold in the berries and lemon
zest.

2. Whisk
the yoghurt, egg and vanilla essence. Cut into the flour mixture using a metal
spatula or a flat- bladed knife until just combined – don’t overmix.

3. Transfer
the dough to a lightly floured surface and press with the heel of your hand to
about 2,5cm thick. Use a cookie cutter to press out 12 scones and arrange on the
prepared baking sheet. Generously sprinkle yellow sugar over the scones. Bake
for 20-25 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.

4. To
serve:
Mix the yoghurt, berries and sugar and serve with the lukewarm scones.
