Step-by-Step Instructions for Zucchini Cheddar Scones
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar.
- Cut the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Whisk together the beaten egg and sour cream in a small bowl, then pour into the dry mixture and stir until just combined.
- Toss the drained zucchini and cheese with the remaining flour, then fold into the dough.
- Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and press into an 8-inch circle. Cut into 8 wedges.
- Place the scone wedges on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with the remaining cheddar.
- Bake for 22-24 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Let the scones cool slightly before serving warm.

Notes
Keep butter cold and avoid overmixing. Drain zucchini well to prevent sogginess.
