Zucchini Pie with Crumb Topping image

Tastes like an apple pie with a smooth texture! My husband LOVES this pie! He says the taste is somewhere between an apple and a pecan pie, but I think it tastes like apple. You may want to use less sugar depending on your taste. This is a great way to use all that zucchini from your garden! My family only likes zucchini bread once in a while, and my kids will only eat a few different veggies -- zucchini being one of them -- so I love discovering new ways to incorporate it into our meals and desserts.

Time 1h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust
1 cup peeled, cubed zucchini
2 eggs
1 cup white sugar
½ cup butter, melted
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9-inch pie dish with the pie crust, and place the pie dish onto a baking sheet.
  • Place zucchini into the work bowl of a food processor, and process until pureed. Transfer the puree to a bowl, and whisk with eggs, 1 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup melted butter, 2 tablespoons flour, and the vanilla extract. Pour the mixture into the pie crust.
  • Place 1/2 cup flour, brown sugar, and 3 tablespoons of butter into a bowl, and cut the mixture with a pastry cutter until the topping resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the pie filing.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is set and the topping is lightly browned, about 45 minutes. Allow to cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.

This pie was a bit of a disappointment. The crust was dry and crumbly, and the filling was bland. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different recipe.

I've made this zucchini pie several times now, and it's always a hit. It's easy to make and uses simple ingredients, but it always turns out perfectly. The zucchini is moist and flavorful, and the cheese and eggs give it a rich, creamy texture. I hig

This zucchini pie was absolutely delicious! The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was rich and savory. I loved the addition of the crumb topping, which added a nice crunch. I will definitely be making this pie again!
