ingredients

Filling
- 3 lbs chopped seeded peeled zucchini (about 8 cups)
- 2⁄3 cup lemon juice
- 1 cup sugar (or reduce to suit taste)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
-
Crust
- 4 cups flour
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 1⁄2 cups cold butter
-
Topping
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
directions
- In a large saucepan, over medium-low heat, cook and stir zucchini and lemon juice for 15-20 minutes or until zucchini is tender. (I cook mine in the microwave.) Add sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg; simmer one minute longer. Remove from heat and set aside.
- For crust, combine flour and sugar in a bowl; cut in butter until mixture resembles course crumbs. Stir 1/2 cup into zucchini mixture.
- Press half of remaining crust mixture into a greased 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Spread zucchini mixture over top; crumble remaining crust mixture over zucchini. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
- Bake at 375°F for 35-40 minutes or until golden and bubbly. Top with ice cream or whipped cream to serve, if desired.

Awesome! It tastes just like apple cobbler. I have made it twice now-the first time I followed the recipe exactly and it was great but I wanted to try to make it a little healthier. On the second batch I cut the sugar to 1/2 cup and used brown sugar and for the topping I used 1 1/2 cups sugar(half white and half brown). I subbed 1 cup of the flour for wheat germ and sprinkled oats on top- it was absolutely perfect.
