Zucchini Pie

A comforting Zucchini Pie filled with nostalgic flavors and fresh summer vegetables.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups grated zucchini
  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Optional: chopped onions or fresh herbs (like dill, parsley, or thyme)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grate your zucchini and squeeze out excess moisture.
  3. Mix the grated zucchini, shredded Parmesan cheese, and flour in a large mixing bowl.
  4. Whisk the eggs, milk, baking powder, salt, and black pepper in another bowl.
  5. Combine the wet mixture with the dry ingredients until fully incorporated.
  6. Add the olive oil and fold it in.
  7. Transfer the mixture to a greased pie dish.
  8. Bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Squeezing excess moisture from the zucchini is crucial for a non-soggy pie. You can prepare the mixture ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
