Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gently press the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, crimping the edges decoratively. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, combine the grated squash, sugar, melted butter, beaten eggs, flour, lemon extract, and coconut extract. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Pour the squash mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading evenly. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean. (30-45 minutes)

05

Step

Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set properly. (2 hours)

For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of melted butter.
Garnish with toasted coconut flakes or a dollop of whipped cream for an elegant touch.
If using zucchini, peel it for a more subtle flavor and color in the pie.
Store leftover pie in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

    I was skeptical at first, but this pie is absolutely delicious! My kids had no idea there was squash in it.

    The lemon and coconut extracts complement the squash perfectly. It's a unique and surprisingly addictive dessert!

  • Myrna Lowe

    Easy to make and a great way to use up extra zucchini from the garden. Will definitely make this again!
