Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 400° F.
- Soak dried blueberries in water for approximately 15 minutes and set aside. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, mix flaxseed, flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, and salt together. Using a standing or hand mixer, combine dry mixture and coconut oil together until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a divot in the center of the flour mixture and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine yogurt and egg white. Drain any excess water from the blueberries and gently fold them in to the yogurt and egg mixture.
- Dump yogurt mixture into flour mixture. Using a fork, stir until moistened.
- Knead dough on a lightly floured surface, folding and gently pressing dough for 10 to 12 strokes or until it is nearly smooth. Pat or lightly roll into a 10-inch circle and cut into 12 wedges.
- Place wedges 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheet. Brush tops of scones lightly with almond milk. If desired, sprinkle scones with additional oats and/or flaxseeds.
- Bake for 16 to 18 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.
