Summer Squash Pie

Instructions

1. 1

   Combine Ingredients in Bowl

   8 min

   In a large mixing bowl, add 2 summer squashes that have been grated or finely chopped, 2 eggs, 300g flour, and 1/4 tsp baking powder. Stir the ingredients together until they form a thick, sticky batter. If the consistency seems too runny, gradually incorporate a bit more flour until it thickens to your desired texture.

2. 2

   Prepare Baking Tray

   3 min

   Take a round baking tray that is approximately 2 inches deep and coat the base and sides with a splash of olive oil. Ensure that the oil is evenly distributed to prevent the pie from sticking during baking.

3. 3

   Spread Mixture in Tray

   39 min

   Carefully transfer the prepared mixture into the greased baking tray, spreading it out evenly to ensure uniform cooking. To enhance the texture, pour a small amount of olive oil onto your hand and gently rub it over the surface of the mixture in circular motions, flattening it slightly and giving it a subtle shine.

4. 4

   Bake the Pie

   1 min

   Place the tray in a preheated oven set at 180°C (about 350°F) and bake for approximately 40 minutes. Keep an eye on it; you're looking for a beautifully golden brown top as an indicator that it’s done.

5. 5

   Cool and Cut Pie

   3 min

   Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool in the tray for a few minutes. After it has cooled slightly, cut into squares for easy serving and enjoy!
