Enjoy this crustless Zucchini pie packed with plenty of veggies! Fresh and simple, just the way we like it.
Ingredients
½ tablespoon avocado oil or olive oil
3-4 garlic cloves, minced
1 bunch green onions, diced (reserve some green scallions for topping)
1 cup of baby bella mushrooms, sliced
1 cup of cherry tomatoes
½ small red bell pepper diced
½ cup sweet corn
1 medium or large zucchini sliced
6 large eggs
¼ cup of unsweetened almond milk ( or any milk )
¼ cup of flour
6 basil leaves
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9 inch deep dish pie pan (or a 9 inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Cook all those veggies except for the zucchini. Add olive oil to a large skillet and place over medium high heat. Once hot, add garlic, green onions and sauté until fragrant. Then add in mushrooms, tomatoes, red bell pepper and corn; season with a little salt and pepper and cook for a few minutes until the mushrooms begin to soften. (We’re not cooking the zucchini!) Remove veggies from heat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, almond milk, flour, basil, 1/2 cup shredded cheese and a little salt & pepper.
- Add all of the veggies (including the zucchini) to the greased pie pan and spread out evenly. Next pour your egg mixture over the top of the veggies. Sprinkle the top with remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
- Bake for 35-50 minutes or until egg sets, puffs up, and becomes slightly golden. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes before cutting into 6 slices. Allow pie to completely cool before covering and storing in the fridge.
