A friend just gave me a recipe for a zucchini pie which, for all the world, tastes like a Dutch apple pie. The filling is: 8-10 C peeled sliced zucchini (I didn't peel mine though) 2/3 C lemon juice 1 C sugar 1 t cinnamon 3/4 t nutmeg Topping: 2 C flour 1 C sugar 1/4 t salt 3/4 C margarine or butter 1 1/2 t cinnamon Combine topping ingred as for a pie crust until fine and crumbly. Cook the zucchini in a sauce pan with the lemon, sugar, and spices and simmer a few min. Then add approx. 1/2 C of the topping mixture to the saucepan to thicken the mixture. When thick, pour into a pie crust and top with remaining topping. Bake for about 35 min @350*
