Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 3 cups sliced zucchini
- 1 cup biscuit/baking mix
- 1 small onion, chopped
Instructions
- Create the Base: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, canola oil, minced fresh parsley, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add the Baking Mix and Veggies: Stir in the biscuit/baking mix, sliced zucchini, and chopped onion into the egg mixture until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Prepare to Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate thoroughly to prevent sticking.
- Bake the Pie: Pour the prepared batter into the greased pie plate, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the pie is lightly browned on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Notes
- Make sure to slice the zucchini evenly for consistent cooking.
- You can substitute biscuit/baking mix with self-rising flour mixed with a bit of baking powder.
- Allow the pie to cool for a few minutes before slicing to help it set.
- For a richer flavor, try adding some shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese on top before baking.
- This pie can be served warm or at room temperature.
