Zucchini Pie Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 premade pie crust
• 2 medium zucchinis, sliced thinly
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk or heavy cream

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Place the premade pie crust onto a pie dish and crimp the edges. Refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and garlic and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add the sliced zucchini to the skillet and toss to combine with the onions and garlic. Cook until the zucchini is tender, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
5. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and milk or cream together. Add the Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper and whisk until well combined.
6. Add the cooked zucchini mixture to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
7. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
8. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

This zucchini pie recipe is perfect for a light and tasty lunch or dinner. The combination of zucchini, onions, cheese, and eggs makes for a delicious and satisfying dish that’s easy to prepare and serves as a great alternative to quiche.
