I heart pumpkin pie. I heart sweet potato pie. And I wanted an alternate to heart!! Here is what I came up with.

Categories     Pies

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pie crust shell, uncooked
3 eggs
1 egg yolk
1/4 c sugar
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
2 Tbsp all purpose flour
1-1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spices
1 tsp vanilla extract, pure
1 c pealed & steamed (or boiled) zucchini, smashed
3 Tbsp melted butter
1 c buttermilk

Steps:

  • 1. Whisk eggs, egg yolk and both sugars in large bowl until blended.
  • 2. Stir in flour, then pumpkin pie spice and then vanilla blending fully before next addition.
  • 3. Stir in zucchini, butter and buttermilk. (for the zucchini: I peel, wash, slice and boil until soft. Then I remove and drain fully and put it in a blender until super smooth.)
  • 4. Pour mixture into crust and bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Cover edges with foil or shield and continue baking for 30 minutes. Remove shield or foil, bake for 15 minutes.
  • 5. Remove from oven and allow to rest/set on wire rack until completely cool.
