05 Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set, about 20-25 minutes. (Bake time: 25 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View
Let the pie cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set up properly. (Cool time: 10 minutes)
For a richer flavor, try using a blend of cheeses, such as Parmesan or Gruyere, along with the mozzarella.
If you don't have crescent rolls, you can use a store-bought or homemade pie crust. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
To prevent the crust from getting too brown, you can cover the edges with foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the zucchini mixture, such as bell peppers or mushrooms, for added flavor and nutrients.
This pie is delicious served warm or at room temperature. It also makes a great make-ahead dish, as it can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.

Nov 24, 2024I used a homemade pie crust instead of crescent rolls, and it turned out great. It took a little longer to bake, but it was worth it.
