Lemon & Blueberry Scone Slices

330g self raising flour

40g caster sugar
Zest of 1 lemon
120g blueberries, frozen
180ml milk

2 heaped tablespoons of icing sugar

The blueberries in this recipe are best frozen, which stops them completely disintegrating and bleeding too much on baking, buy them fresh and then simply pop them in the freezer before you get going, you don’t need to buy them ready frozen.
