Yield: 8 scones       Prep Time: 30 mins      Cook time: 25-30 mins      Total Time: 1 hour

INGREDIENTS

• 1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour or gluten-free* flour
• 1 ½ tsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp salt
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• ½ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
• 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
• 3 tbsp + 2 tsp nonfat milk, divided
• 1 tsp almond extract
• ½ cup fresh raspberries, diced

 INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F, and line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or the back of a fork until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stir in the Greek yogurt, maple syrup, 3 tablespoons of milk, and almond extract. Gently fold in the raspberries.
3. Using a spatula, shape the dough into a ¾” tall circle on the prepared baking sheet, and brush with the remaining milk.
4. Slice the circle into 8 triangular segments with a sharp knife.
5. Bake at 425°F for 17-20 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
