I have a friend that HATES zucchini. I bet I could make something he would eat and LOVE. This pie was the ticket! He never knew he wasn't eating apple pie, until after he finished. My family also loved it, even the veggie hating children. I didn't change anything in the receipe and it was delicious!

my 86 year old aunt is in a nursing home in indiana and told that one of the ladies there used to make zucchini pie. my first reaction was no way! having a huge garden and have tons of zucchini i decided to search the net for a recipe and found this one! oh my goodness. everyone thought that it was apple! i did do a couple of things a little different. because i was using a big glass pie plate i used 4 cups of zucchini, and a bit more flour. also, i just cooked the zucchini 2 minutes so they wouldn't be mush in the pie. they were a tad crisp just the way that i wanted!

I have another recipe that a friend gave me 8 yrs. ago. Instead of boiling the zucchini you cook it in the lemon juice and it gradually beginning to look like sliced apples then add sugar and spices. I have prepared it without the crust in place of cooked apples along side pork chops. My grandchildren asked for more apples.

I think you could make this "apple" pie with any bland vegetable, because the taste is provided by the lemon, sugar and cinnamon. The advantage of the zucchini is that it looks like apple slices and retains a good texture, even after boiling and baking, which surprised me. Once boiled, the zucchini is almost tasteless. So it is a great way to use homegrown zucchini, especially those large ones. I used 6 cups zucchini. I think 8 cups might be better. I also did not use a bottom or top crust, but used the streusel topping for the top (much quicker). Baked for 30 minutes.

I went out and bought zucchini for this recipe, and after making it I see why everybody is saying the its great for those with too much zucchini on their hands. It was good, but I left my recipe on the counter, and after my family saw that it was a vegetable they wouldn't hardly try it! Next time I'll just use this recipe with other fruit :)I used 5 zucchini and leakylou's suggestion for a crumble on top, which was the perfect addition. With the crumble, I would reccomend cooking it about 35 minutes.

OH. MY. GOD. ok. This is *the* biggest lifesaver...its seriously so good. I'm actually on the South Beach diet, but my fiancee is notttt...i made this with splenda and no crust (like baked apples) and it was AMAZING! I personally suggest halving the lemon juice if u do this, but man oh man is it yummyyyy! I put it on a ritz cracker w a little cool whip free for a guilt free snack. ps: my fiancee hates zucchini. pps: he ate half my "apples" with ritz and fat free ice cream ppps: he wants more. i can't rate this high enough. As an allrecipes addict, this is BY FAR my fav recipe yet.

My husband thought this was apple pie until he found a zucchini seed. (I didn't seed the zucchini) It was absolutely great! I've made it twice now and the whole family loves it!

This was an awesome pie. We also like a zucchini cobbler recipe from this site, but this pie has much better leftovers. The cream of tartar flavor was a bit noticeable in the resulting pie, but my husband didn't mind it. I might boil the zucchini in lemon juice like the cobbler recipe next time, and reduce the cream of tartar a bit. But it was luscious and satisfying. Note: Use young zucchini, not the giant mother-of-all-zucchini that evaded harvest. The big ones are a little stringier, resulting in a slightly off texture.

My husband was VERY SKEPTICAL. He thought this was so good, he even liked it better than a regular apple pie. I was quite surprised too. Couldn't believe it could really taste like apple pie. This recipe deserves more than 5 stars. Next time I will make 1-1/2 times the filling as we like it thicker.

1ST RECIPE I HAVE RATED - EVEN THO I HAVE TRIED OVER 100 "AR" RECIPES. USED 1CUP MINUS 2 TABLESPOONS SPLENDA INSTEAD OF SUGAR...ALSO USED 6-7 CUPS ZUCCHINI. ALL ELSE AS WRITTEN. USED HUSBAND (DIABETIC), GRAND-KIDS, GREAT GRAND-KIDS, NEIGHBORS, AS TASTE TESTERS AND NONE KNEW IT WASN'T "REAL" APPLE PIE. NO ONE WAS MORE SURPRISED THAN I AT THE EXCELLENT FLAVOR. ADDED BONUS WAS HOW WELL IT HELD TOGETHER AND CUT INTO PIE PORTIONS WITHOUT BEING RUNNY OR FALLING APART. P.S..cut the zucchini long ways, then slice (not cube) so the slices even LOOK like apple slices.

So i was CRAZY excited about this recipe. My dad brings home these HUGE zucchini's and boy was I tired of baking countless loaves of bread! I saw this and HAD to try it. I fooled a few members of my family who really thought it was apple pie. Definitely tastes like it. However, i gave it 4 stars because i felt the creme of tartar was a half tablespoon too much and i felt there was too much cinnamon but everyone felt it was okay. Other than the tartness, it was AMAZING!!!! You definitely need to make this.

Though I've been a member for 3 years, this is my first review--this pie was *that* good! I used 6 cups of zucchini and a 1/3 of the streusal topping that another reader suggested. This came out amazing--my super-skeptical husband enjoyed! Thanks so much...

I keep having to remind myself that I baked this pie with zucchini and not apples. It is impossible to tell the difference. I used the struesel topping as per another users rating, and prepared my own pie crust and it was the best pie I've ever tasted! The best part is that my husband is allergic to apples... not zucchini!! He gives it 12 out of 10 as well! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS RECIPE!!!!!!

Made with a crumb topping and only used 1c sugar. Next time I will use 6c zucchini, pie wasn't full enough. Nobody could believe it wasn't apple... even the zucchini HATERS. Definitely will make again.

I registered with Allrecipes.com JUST to rate this recipe. I've made it twice, and it's my first attempt at making any pie whatsoever. It turned out with MAJOR reviews from both occasions (most recently, Thanksgiving). It tastes JUST like apple pie, but not as overtly sweet or fruity as apple usually is. Amazing. Make this pie!

Wow, this a great recipe and a wonderful way to use those large overlooked zucchini hiding in your garden. I have made it many times and NO one can believe it is not apple. My husband said it was the best apple pie he had ever eaten before I told him. In order to cut down on some of the calories I have begun using a crumb topping instead of the top crust. It is fantastic either way. Make sure you don't forget to cook the zucchini first. I forgot the last time and the zucchini was crunchy and not nearly as good.

This recipe is fabulous. I served it to my family saying it was apple pie and to my surprise no one thought it was anything but apple pie. When I said it was zucchini no one believed me and my doubting daughter even made me show her the zucchini peels to prove it. Believe me, it's that good.
