Tips:
- Use a variety of zucchini. Green zucchini, yellow zucchini, and pattypan squash can all be used in this recipe. If you use a combination of colors, your pie will have a more vibrant appearance.
- Grate the zucchini coarsely. This will help it to release its moisture and cook evenly.
- Don't overcook the zucchini. It should be tender but still have a slight crunch to it.
- Use a good quality pie crust. A homemade pie crust is always best, but you can also use a store-bought crust if you're short on time.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help the filling to set and the flavors to meld together.
