11-22 Apple Pie - made from Zuchhini!


Here's my recipe for apple pie:

ZUCCHINI PIE (tastes like apple)
1 C sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 C brown sugar
1/4 tsp nutmeg
3 Tbs corn starch
1/4 tsp allspice
1 Tbs lemon juice
1 1/2 tsp cream of tarter
2 Tbs butter
Pinch of salt
5 cups zucchini squash

Peel and cube the squash into 1/2 inch pieces. Large zucchini works good if
you scoop out the seeds and discard. Cover with water and boil for 5
minutes. Drain well, then mix in the remaining ingredients. Mix well until
butter melts. At this point you can either put the mixture in a ziplock bag
and put in the freezer for future use or bake in a pie.

Bake in 9 inch double crust pie shell at 400 for 10 minutes (just to brown
the crust) and then reduce heat to 350 and bake for 20 more minutes.
