Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, cardamom, lemon zest, baking soda, salt, and ginger in a large bowl. Grate in frozen butter using a box grater; toss until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 3
Combine yogurt, cream, 1 egg, and vanilla extract in a small bowl; stir into flour mixture until forms a crumbly dough and just until no dry clumps of flour remain. Stir in 1 cup unthawed blueberries.
Step 4
Pour crumbly dough onto the prepared baking sheet; firmly press together until forms a cohesive 8-inch circle. Flatten top to ensure circle is even. Cut into 8 triangular pieces; space pieces 1 inch apart on the baking sheet.
Step 5
Whisk 1 egg and water together in a small bowl; gently brush over tops of each scone.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
Step 7
Press 1/4 cup thawed blueberries through a fine-mesh strainer into a medium bowl using the back of a wooden spoon to extract 2 to 3 tablespoons juice. Discards skins and seeds. Whisk confectioners' sugar and lemon juice into blueberry juice until smooth; drizzle over cooled scones.
