Are you thinking Spring when you hear Strawberry Scones? I sure am! I am so excited for warmer weather and spring and summer foods! These Strawberry Scones are very easy to make and are topped with a lemon glaze. You're going to love them! They're soft and buttery and make the best dessert. The lemon drizzle is tart and tangy and adds to the scone perfectly.

To me, scones seem fancy but in reality, they are quite easy to make! I've made a few varieties of scones including cranberry and blueberry and these strawberry scones are a favorite for sure! When I make a batch of scones, my family always gobbles them right up. Feel free to make a double batch if you like which is what I usually do since my kids will eat these like crazy. I had these ready to go warm from the oven right when my husband and 3 kids got home from school and they rated them 10/10, even my husband who doesn't always like scones.

Strawberry Scones Ingredients

Flour- I've used white-whole wheat flour and gluten-free flour and both work great!
Sugar
Baking powder
Salt
Cold butter
Hoosier Hill Farm Oat Milk Powder- This oat milk powder is great to have on hand! It is shelf stable and mixes well with water to make oat milk. It can also be mixed into coffee or smoothies and is a great option for those who are dairy-free.
Water
Lemon juice and zest
Strawberries
Egg
Vanilla
Powdered sugar
Plain yogurt

How to Make Strawberry Scones

For my strawberry scones, I used fresh strawberries. Frozen strawberries would also work well. You're going to make your oat milk first and then mix it with lemon juice to make a homemade oat buttermilk. Then, mix all of the dry ingredients together. Mix in the butter and then add in all of the wet ingredients.

Mix the dough and roll it into a ball, flatten it and then cut into triangles and bake. Scones are a pretty easy recipe to make! For the lemon glaze, just mix together the lemon juice, powdered sugar and plain yogurt. I used regular yogurt, not Greek so it was not too thick.

Are Strawberry Scones healthy?

Strawberry scones are a dessert and can be enjoyed as a dessert! There are a couple of healthier choices you can make! You can use white-whole wheat flour which adds fiber. In the scone part of the recipe, the amount of sugar used is very low. You can skip the sugar glaze if you like to keep these on the lighter side.
