Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Peel zucchini, remove centers and cut up as for apple pie to fill three cups. Place in bowl and mix well with:
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 Tablespoon tapioca
1 Tablespoon flour

Steps:

  • Let stand while preparing crust. Add: 1 Tablespoon vinegar 1/4 cup lemon juice 1/4 cup sugar + cinnamon Dot with butter. Cover with top crust and bake 375° for 1 1/2 hour. Might spill over in oven.

Tips:

  • Choose the right zucchini. For this recipe, you'll want to use a medium-sized zucchini that is firm and has a deep green color. Avoid zucchini that is too large, as it will be more watery and less flavorful.
  • Peel the zucchini thinly. This will help to prevent the zucchini from becoming too mushy in the pie.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the zucchini. This will help to create even slices that will cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the zucchini. This will help to prevent the zucchini from steaming instead of browning.
  • Be patient when baking the pie. It takes time for the zucchini to soften and the flavors to meld together. Don't rush the process, or you'll end up with a pie that is undercooked and bland.

Conclusion:

This mock apple pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up summer zucchini, and it's a hit with both kids and adults alike. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give this mock apple pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
