Number Of Ingredients 9

4 c zucchini
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 1/4 c sugar
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
dash nutmeg
3 Tbsp flour
2 Tbsp butter
2 prepared pie crust

Steps:

Cook the zucchini in a pot with water, cooking until tender, but not mushy. Drain in a colander and let cool. When cool, add all ingredients except the butter and mix well. Pour the mixture into the prepared crust and dot with butter. Cover with the top crust or make the top crust into a lattice crust. Brush crust with milk and bake 400 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until nicely browned.
