Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded zucchini squeezed dry
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  • Shred zucchini using a box grater or food processor. Squeeze firmly in a clean towel to remove as much moisture as possible.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir in Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley evenly.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, melted butter, and egg until smooth.
  • Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Add squeezed zucchini and gently stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Dough should be slightly sticky and thick enough to drop from a spoon.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Drop mounds of dough (2-3 tablespoons each) onto the sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 12-15 minutes, until tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm.

Equipment

  • Box grater
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Baking Sheet
  • Oven

Notes

  • Dry your zucchini well to prevent soggy, dense biscuits.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan for best flavor and melt.
  • Do not overmix the dough to keep biscuits tender.
  • Try swapping parsley for other herbs like chives or basil for variety.
  • Biscuits are best fresh but can be reheated to regain crispness.
