Soft, golden oat scones served cream tea-style with a dollop of thick Greek yoghurt "cream" and juicy strawberries. They're made with just a handful of store-cupboard ingredients. The oats and yoghurt give you fibre and protein to keep you full, so it's a teatime treat that also meets the snack targets.

3.
Stir in the yoghurt, maple syrup and vanilla to make a soft dough. If it's too dry, add up to 2 tbsp water.

Storage information
Keep the scones in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, as they contain yoghurt. Freeze them for up to 3 months and defrost at room temperature. Warm them briefly in the oven before serving if you like.
Tip
Baking with little ones: Children can mix the dough and cut out the wedges. Use a small cutter for mini scones, and reduce the baking time to 12–14 minutes. Flavour ideas: Add the zest of 1 lemon or ½ tsp ground cinnamon to the dough.
