Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt.
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add them to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, mix the unsweetened applesauce, almond milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
Fold in the blueberries carefully to prevent breaking them too much.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a circle, about 1 inch thick.
Cut the circle into 8 equal wedges and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the scones are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
