Time 1h

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 cups peeled seeded diced zucchini (about the size of canned pineapple chunks)
2/3 cup lemon juice
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups cold butter
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • ZUCCHINI MIXTURE:.
  • In a large saucepan, over medium-low heat, cook zucchini and lemon juice for 15-20 minutes until zucchini is tender.
  • Add sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg and cook for a minute more.
  • Remove from heat and let sit.
  • CRUST MIXTURE:.
  • For crust, mix flour, and sugar in a large bowl.
  • Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles pea size coarse crumbs.
  • Stir 1/2 cup of the flour mixture into zucchini and mix well.
  • Press 1/2 of remaining crust mixture into a greased 15x10 jelly roll pan.
  • Spread zucchini mixture over crust in pan.
  • Crumble remaining crumb mix over zucchini and sprinkle with the 1 teaspoon cinnamon.
  • Bake at 375°F for 35-40 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use a firm, tart apple that will hold its shape when baked, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
  • Peel and slice the apples thinly: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the crisp tough.
  • Use a combination of sugars: White sugar and brown sugar will give the crisp a complex flavor.
  • Don't skimp on the butter: Butter adds richness and flavor to the crisp.
  • Bake the crisp until the topping is golden brown and the apples are bubbling: This will take about 45 minutes.
  • Serve the crisp warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream: This will make it even more delicious!
