These sourdough blueberry scones are light, airy, not overly sweet and the perfect breakfast or snack treat.
There is sourdough starter in this recipe. There are SO MANY sourdough starter recipes out there, and tips, tricks, etc.
My sourdough starter is all unbleached all-purpose flour. Some starters add rye flour, whole wheat flour, but I went with straight all-purpose.
That could be why it took me nearly two weeks for my starter to be active enough to bake with, but it was definitely worth the wait. Check out this blog post for a lot of information on how to get your sourdough starter going. But see all those bubbles? That means it’s ready to eat!

How do you make light fluffy scones?
Cold butter + hot stove = fluffy, tender scones. Freezing my scone dough after forming for 30 minutes while my oven gets to 425 makes all the difference. You will get THE BEST knife cuts on your scone with this process.

Sourdough Blueberry Scones
These sourdough blueberry scones are light, slightly sweet and a perfect breakfast with eggs, or an afternoon snack.
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup quick oats

Instructions
In a large bowl, mix the flour, oats, baking powder, salt and sugar. Add grated butter and toss to coat. Toss in blueberries.
Stir in the almond milk, sourdough starter and mix just until combined and there is no flour in the bottom of your bowl.

I just mixed the scones up. I’ll leave them in the fridge overnight before cutting and baking tomorrow. I got a little ahead of myself, I forgot to add the berries before everything was mixed. Good grief! However, I believe they’ll taste the same, yummy, just a whole lot blue! Lol
