Since the summer time is famous for an over abundance of zucchini I have been seeking new ways to use up our supply. I came across this recipe & decided to give it a try (what's to lose, it's not like I don't have plenty of the stuff!) I have to admit, I can not tell the difference!
I made it one night and served it up for dessert with some coolwhip on top. I anxiously watched Dare while he ate it searching for any sign that he knew I pulled a fast one on him. After he had cleaned his bowl I asked him how it was and he said it was really good, after I asked him if he knew what was in it he stated "apples". Nope. Zucchini. My sister & I did the same thing to 2 of my brother-in-law in Snowflake (Dare was in on it this time & to his credit kept the secret) After finishing the dessert Dare told them and they thought we were joking. Try this recipe, I challenge you!
Zucchini Crisp
4 cups diced Zucchini (I peel the zucchini as to not give it away with the green skin)
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4-1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp. Cinnamon (I add more for my taste)
1/2 tsp nutmeg (ditto)
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup flour
1/3 cup butter, melted
Place the first 5 ingredients in a 8x8 pan & mix until the zucchini is well coated with sugary goodness. In another bowl mix the topping of brown sugar, oats,& flour. Sprinkle ontop of the zucchini & pour the melted butter over. Bake 375 for 45minutes-until the zucchini is cooked.
