Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Whisk baking powder, sugar, salt, pepper, thyme and 3 1/4 cups flour in a large bowl. Add butter, using your fingers to work into the dry ingredients until the butter is about the size of peas. Drizzle the 1 cup of cream into the mixture and use your fingers to distribute it evenly; dough will begin to clump together. Add the zucchini and cheese pieces and gently knead until dough comes together. Try not to overwork it - the less you work the dough, the more tender your scones will be, and we all want tender scones ? The dough may seem dry, but not to worry, that is where the zucchini magic comes in - releasing a nice amount of liquid during baking. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface and pat into a 2″ thick disc. Roll out gently to about 1 inch thick with a rolling pin. Using a 3″ biscuit cutter, punch out the scones and place them on a parchment lined cookie sheet about 2″ apart (these guys will spread). Brush tops with the extra heavy cream and sprinkle with a bit of the sea salt. Bake scones, rotating baking sheet halfway through, until golden brown and thoroughly baked, about 35-40 minutes. Transfer to wire rack, cool and devour! NOTES Hot tip: Let scones rest on the baking sheet for about 20 minutes before baking and they will be taller and more stately when they come out of the oven ?
