Dive into the world of baking with these Cheesy Zucchini Drop Biscuits! Perfectly golden and wonderfully cheesy, each biscuit brings a delightful mix of zucchini, sun-dried tomatoes, and three kinds of cheese. They’re just the thing to brighten up your meal or serve as a scrumptious snack.
Ingredients
¾ cup grated zucchini
1¼ tsp salt, divided
2½ cups flour
1 tbsp baking powder
½ cup cubed cold butter
½ cup grated cheddar cheese
¼ cup grated mozzarella cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp chopped sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed)
2 tbsp chopped fresh basil (or 2 tsp dried basil)
1 cup milk (2% fat content)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a small bowl, toss the grated zucchini with ¼ tsp of salt and let sit for 10 minutes; then squeeze out excess moisture.
In a large bowl, mix flour, 1 tsp salt, and baking powder. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the cheddar, mozzarella, Parmesan, sun-dried tomatoes, and basil.
Gradually add milk to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.
