Ingredients

Scale

2 cups (240 g) all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

¼ teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon garlic powder

5 tablespoons (70 g) unsalted butter, very cold

1 cup (240 g) buttermilk

1 cup (135 g) finely grated zucchini, liquid squeezed out

1 tablespoon chopped chives

4 ounces (113 g) shredded sharp cheddar cheese

2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and garlic powder.

3. Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

4. Stir in buttermilk, grated zucchini, chives, and cheddar until just combined.

5. Turn dough onto a floured surface and gently pat into a 1-inch thick rectangle.

7. Bake for 15–18 minutes or until golden brown on top.

Notes

To freeze, cut biscuits and freeze unbaked. Bake directly from frozen with 2–3 extra minutes.

To reheat baked biscuits, warm in a 350°F oven for 5–7 minutes.
