  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  • Whisk both flours, white sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl. Cut in butter with 2 knives or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in blueberries and walnuts. Beat yogurt and banana in a small bowl until smooth; add to flour mixture and stir gently just until dough holds together.
  • Turn dough out onto prepared baking sheet and pat into an 8-inch circle. Score the dough into 8 wedge-shaped pieces using a butter knife. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over dough.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 18 to 20 minutes.
  • While scones are baking, whisk confectioner's sugar and water together in a small liquid measuring cup. Drizzle over warm scones before serving.
