ZUCCHINI BISCUITS
I over bought zucchini when it was on sale and just had to figure out ways to use it. This recipe freezes well and is also very tasty. I love zucchini and when you can use it to make different kinds of bread makes it even better.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 400F
- 2. In a bowl combine dry ingredients (flours, wheat germ, baking powder, herbs, garlic powder, brown sugar, salt and pepper).
- 3. Melt butter in fry pan, saute onions until soft but not browned. Combine onions (and butter) with dry ingredients.
- 4. Add zucchini and combine.
- 5. Add eggs, water and greek yogurt and combine.
- 6. Add cheddar cheese and combine.
- 7. On a pre-greased (I use PAM) baking sheet arrange spoonfuls of mixture in golf ball sized portions, allowing enough space for the batter to spread approximately twice the size of the original ball.
- 8. Bake for 40 minutes or until a deep golden brown. Makes approximately 36 biscuits.
Tips:
- Use fresh zucchini. Fresh zucchini has a higher water content than older zucchini, which will help to keep your biscuits moist.
- Grate the zucchini finely. This will help to distribute the zucchini evenly throughout the biscuits and prevent them from becoming too dense.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the biscuits tough.
- Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help to prevent the biscuits from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the biscuits until they are golden brown. The biscuits are done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Conclusion:
Zucchini biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are a great way to use up fresh zucchini from your garden, and they are also a healthier alternative to traditional biscuits. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect zucchini biscuits every time.
