Holy Cow Daniel just brought in MORE ZUCCHINI I had picked oddles this morning time to dig thru these recipes I have on my computer… my zucchini apple pie is really good! Zucchini Fritters INGREDIENTS 1 lb of zucchini (about 2 medium sized), coarsely grated Kosher salt Ground black pepper 1 large egg 2 scallions, finely chopped 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 cup grape seed oil or olive oil Sour cream or plain yoghurt METHOD 1 Salt the zucchini with about 1 teaspoon of salt. Try to remove the excess moisture from the zucchini by either squeezing the liquid out with a potato ricer, or by squeezing with paper towels. (The original recipe calls for putting the zucchini in a colander set in the sink to let it drain for 10 minutes after salting it. I think it works much better to use a potato ricer.) 2 Whisk egg in a large bowl; add the zucchini, flour, scallions, and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper. Mix to combine well. 3 Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook fritters in two batches. Drop six mounds of batter (2 Tbsp each) into the skillet. Flatten slightly. Cook, turning once, until browned, 4-6 minutes on each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle with salt. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately, with sour cream or plain yoghurt on the side. Zucchini Muffins For those of you who prefer to use oil over butter, be my guest (use 1 cup vegetable oil instead of the butter) but I have to tell you, I’ve made these both ways, and the butter version just tastes better. INGREDIENTS 3 cups grated fresh zucchini 2/3 cup melted unsalted butter 1 1/3 cup sugar 2 eggs, beaten 2 teaspoons vanilla 2 teaspoons baking soda Pinch salt 3 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg 1 cup walnuts (optional) 1 cup raisins or dried cranberries (optional) METHOD You don’t need a mixer for this recipe. 1 Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl combine the sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Stir in the grated zucchini and then the melted butter. Sprinkle the baking soda and salt over the zucchini mixture and mix in. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Stir these dry ingredients into the zucchini mixture. Stir in walnuts, raisins or cranberries if using. 2 Coat each muffin cup in your muffin pan with a little butter or vegetable oil spray. Use a spoon to distribute the muffin dough equally among the cups, filling the cups up completely. Bake on the middle rack until muffins are golden brown, and the top of the muffins bounce back when you press on them, about 25 to 30 minutes. Test with a long toothpick or a thin bamboo skewer to make sure the center of the muffins are done. Set on wire rack to cool for 5 minutes. Remove muffins from the tin let cool another 20 minutes. Note, if you are including walnuts and dried fruit, you will likely have more batter than is needed for 12 muffins. I got about 14 muffins from this batch, and that included filling the muffin cups up as far as they could possibly go (above the surface of the muffin tin). Mom’s Zucchini Bread “Really, really good and moist Bread will freeze well, and keep in refrigerator for weeks.” INGREDIENTS 3 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon baking powder 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon 3 eggs 1 cup vegetable oil 2 1/4 cups white sugar 3 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 cups grated zucchini 1 cup chopped walnuts DIRECTIONS Grease and flour two 8 x 4 inch pans.

Blueberry Zucchini Bread Original recipe yield 4 mini-loaves INGREDIENTS 3 eggs, lightly beaten 1 cup vegetable oil 3 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 1/4 cups white sugar 2 cups shredded zucchini 3 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon 1 pint fresh blueberries DIRECTIONS Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Zucchini Brownies “Moist chocolate brownies with frosting!” PREP TIME 15 Min 30 Min READY IN 45 Min Original recipe yield 1 - 9x13 inch pan INGREDIENTS (Nutrition) 1/2 cup vegetable oil 1 1/2 cups white sugar 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 2 cups shredded zucchini 1/2 cup chopped walnuts 6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder 1/4 cup margarine 2 cups confectioners’ sugar 1/4 cup milk 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract DIRECTIONS Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Combine the flour, 1/2 cup cocoa, baking soda and salt; stir into the sugar mixture. Fold in the zucchini and walnuts. Spread evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until brownies spring back when gently touched. To make the frosting, melt together the 6 tablespoons of cocoa and margarine; set aside to cool. In a medium bowl, blend together the confectioners’ sugar, milk and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Stir in the cocoa mixture. Spread over cooled brownies before cutting into squares. Zucchini-Apple Pie two 9-inch pie crusts, unbaked 4 1/2 cups of zucchini, cut lengthwise 1 3/4 cups of granulated sugar a pinch of salt 2 teaspoons of all-purpose flour 1 1/4 teaspoons of cinnamon 1/8 teaspoon of nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon of cream of tartar 2 teaspoons of lemon juice 2 teaspoons of butter or margarine 1 large Green baking apple Preheat oven to 375ºF. Peel zucchini, cut lengthwise, remove seed and cut as you would for apple pie. Cook in boiling water until BARELY tender (about 2-3 minutes--however, I microwave for about a minute or two in a casserole dish), but DO NOT over-cook. Drain. Cool in ice water for 5 minutes then drain again. Pare and slice apple. Mix zucchini and apple together with rest of ingredients. Pour into prepared crust. Dot with butter or margarine. Cover with the top crust and crimp the edges to seal. Bake 40 to 50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust begins to brown too quickly, cover it with pieces of foil or take an aluminum (throw-away type), cut out the middle and place the cut-out edge over the crust edge of the pie. Chocolate Zucchini Cupcake 1 1/2 cups (360 mL) brown sugar 1/4 cup (60 mL) melted butter 3/4 cup (180 mL) vegetable oil (hs note: I used unrefined, scented, all-natural coconut oil) 3 eggs 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla 1/2 cup (120 mL) buttermilk 2 cups (480 mL) grated zucchini 1 cup (240 mL) chocolate chips 2 cups (480 mL) unbleached flour 1 cup (240 mL) cocoa, sifted 1/2 tsp (2.5 mL) salt 2 tsp (10 mL) baking soda 1 tsp (5 mL) allspice 1 1/2 tsp (7.5 mL) cinnamon Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease large muffin pans and line with muffin cups. In a medium bowl mix together the sugar, butter and oil. Beat in eggs, one at a time until well Incorporated. Stir in vanilla, buttermilk, zucchini and chocolate chips. In a separate bowl mix together all of the dry ingredients. Add the liquid ingredients and mix until well combined. Spoon batter into large muffin pans. Bake in the center of the oven for about 35 minutes. Cool on a wire rack, while preparing the icing (hs note: I made these without the icing, also - don’t overcook them or you will lose all the moist goodness - you want them to look almost done in the oven - they will continue to cook for a few minutes after you pull them from the oven from the residual heat). Yields 9 large cupcakes or 20 standard cupcakes.

Zucchini-Wrapped Scallops * 4 Servings * Prep: 20 min. + marinating Grill: 10 min. Ingredients * 2 tablespoons orange juice * 1 tablespoon olive oil * 1 teaspoon Caribbean jerk seasoning * 1 teaspoon grated orange peel * 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes * 1-1/2 pounds sea scallops (about 16) * 2 medium zucchini Directions * In a small bowl, combine the orange juice, oil, seasoning, orange peel and red pepper flakes; set aside 1 tablespoon for basting. Pour the remaining marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add the scallops. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 30 minutes. * Using a vegetable peeler or metal cheese slicer, cut zucchini into very thin lengthwise strips. Drain and discard marinade. Wrap a zucchini strip around each scallop. Secure by threading where the zucchini ends overlap onto metal or soaked wooden skewers. * Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill seafood, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until scallops are opaque, brushing once with reserved marinade. Yield: 4 servings. Zucchini Tart With Gruyere Cheese and Herbs Prep Time: 15 mins * Total Time: 35 mins * Serves: 8, Yield: 1 Tart “This tart is wonderful picnic, potluck or party food--it’s great served warm, cold or at room temperature! Simple and very tasty, I often make this tart when fresh zucchini are in season. For ease of preparation, I’ve used a crescent roll crust, but you may use a regular shortcrust pastry if you wish. You will need a 9 or 10-inch tart tin with a removable bottom.” Ingredients 2 lbs fresh zucchini, thinly sliced ( about 6 medium zucchini or 4 cups) 1 cup chopped onions 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 garlic cloves, minced 1 teaspoon herbes de provence ( or recipe #376859) salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste 1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 2 tablespoons pesto sauce 2 eggs, beaten 1 cup grated gruyere cheese or 1 cup swiss cheese, plus a little extra for topping 1 (8 ounce) packages crescent roll dough ( or use your favorite shortcrust pastry recipe, see note) Directions 1. Preheat oven to 400F degrees. 2. TO MAKE CRUST:. 3. Unfold crescent dough from the tube and press dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of tart pan to form a crust, pressing gently to seal any perforations; spread crust with pesto. (NOTE: If you will be using a shortcrust pastry recipe instead of the crescent roll dough, you will need to blind-bake it before adding the filling). 4. TO MAKE FILLING:. 5. In a large skillet, saute the zucchini, onion, and garlic in the olive oil until softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the parsley and the herbes de Provence, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let cool slightly before stirring in the beaten eggs and cheese. 6. With a slotted spoon, transfer the filling into the prepared tart shell and spread evenly; sprinkle the top with a little extra grated cheese. I transfer the tart to a baking sheet to catch any overflow. Bake at 400 F until set and crust is golden, about 16 to 19 minutes. 7. Remove to a wire rack and let cool slightly, about 10 minutes, before removing sides of pan. 8. TIP: For ease of removal, place the tart on a large can, then carefully pull the sides of the pan down around it (you may need to run a knife around sides of crust to loosen). 9. Slide tart off the bottom portion of the pan onto a rimless serving dish or cutting board (or leave it on the base to serve). Let rest 10 minutes before slicing and serving. 10. Good served warm, cold or at room temperature. Zucchini Cobbler * 16-20 Servings * Prep: 35 min.
