ingredients
3 1/4 pounds zucchini, peeled, seeds removed and thinly sliced
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Crust
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 dash salt
1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Combine zucchini and lemon juice in a medium saucepan and cook over medium heat until tender, about 30 minutes. During the last 10 minutes of cooking, add sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.
Combine flour, butter, sugar and salt and mix with a pastry blender until crumbly. Stir in buttermilk. Add 1/2 cup of the crust mixture to the cooked zucchini.
Pat half the remaining crust mixture into a 9-by-13-inch pan and bake 8 minutes. Remove bottom crust from oven and reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
Spread filling evenly over hot crust. Distribute little pieces of remaining crust mixture on top and pat down. Sprinkle cinnamon over all and bake for 30 to 40 more minutes, until golden brown.

Nutritional data has not been calculated yet.Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.

Am being overrun by zucchini this year and was looking for different ways to fix it. This tastes just like apple cobbler...it's great!

Excellent. If you love apple crisp, you will love this. My neighbor made this and didn't tell us until we ate it, what it was. Didn't taste the difference. Nice way to sneak those veggies in on the kids.
