  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup greek yogurt

Directions
  1. Put butter in the freezer while working with the other ingredients.

  3. Set aside.
  4. In a larger bowl, mix flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt and baking powder.
  5. Stir in dried blueberries.
  6. Zest the entire lemon, add to the large bowl of dry ingredients.
  7. Take the butter out the freezer and grate it (or you can chop it up) into the bowl of dry ingredients.
  8. Use your hands to work the butter into the mixture until the texture is crumbly.
  9. Add the wet ingredients and use a fork to combine everything.
  10. Knead the dough into a ball, transfer to parchment paper or a cutting board.
  11. Use a rolling pin to roll the ball into a disk about 8 inches wide.
  12. Don’t have a rolling pin?
  13. Flatten it out with your hands.
  14. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap, and place it in the freezer for about 25 minutes.
  15. Just before you take the chilled dough out of the freezer, preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  16. Remove the dough and use a pastry cutter or knife to slice the disk into 6 wedges (can cut into 8 for smaller servings).
  17. Space the wedges out on your baking sheet so they cook through.
