Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and set on a baking sheet. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a food processor, purée the peeled and cubed zucchini. Transfer the purée to a large bowl. (10 minutes)

03

Step

Whisk in the granulated sugar, melted butter, eggs, flour, and vanilla extract until well combined. Pour this mixture into the prepared pie crust. (5 minutes)

04

Step

In a separate bowl, combine the 1/2 cup flour and brown sugar. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the zucchini filling. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is set and the topping is lightly browned, approximately 45 minutes. (45 minutes)

07

Step

Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set completely. (30 minutes)

For a richer flavor, try using brown butter in both the filling and the crumb topping.
If your zucchini is particularly watery, gently squeeze out any excess moisture after puréeing to prevent a soggy pie.
A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg in the crumb topping adds warmth and depth to the overall flavor profile.

    I found the pie a little too sweet for my taste, so I reduced the sugar by 1/4 cup.
