Ingredients

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, melted
2 pounds zucchini, cut into small pieces
3 eggs
1/2 cup undiluted evaporated milk or light cream
2 tablespoons fine dry bread crumbs
1/2 cup onion, diced
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Dash hot pepper sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, combine melted butter and zucchini. Cover and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat, set aside and let zucchini cool before adding eggs to avoid them becoming scrambled. Beat eggs with milk; add bread crumbs, onion, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan. Mix well. Let zucchini cool. Combine mixture with zucchini, stirring until blended. Turn into a buttered 1 1/2 quart casserole. Sprinkle top with remaining Parmesan. Bake uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes. If the dish has been refrigerated, allow about 10 minutes longer baking time.

delish!

Roasted the zucchini right from my garden as the oven was already hot, worked perfectly. Also used brie instead of parmesan... for this batch. So creamy, everyone adores this zucchini custard no matter what the variables.Read more

Great side dish!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I made this last night to use up some fresh zucchini I had on hand. Very good flavor in this dish. I lightly peeled the... zucchini and used olive oil instead of butter to cook the onions and zucchini. I'm sure I will make this again. It's a beautiful, puffy dish when it comes out of the oven. Another keeper from Paula. Read more

I did not like this one, it was not very flavorful and for some reason the inside of the bake was a cottage cheese texture. I... was very diappointed. Maybe it was becuase there was so much zucchini juice after it was cooking in the butter. Dont know if I will try this again.Read more

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this Easter Sunday as a side and EVERYONE LOVED it. I must say I accidently added all the parm at once so I had to... add more on top. This made it even better. THANK YOU PAULA!Read more

Light and Tasty
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I just made this dish and it was yummy! It was easy and I did drain the zucchini while cooling it because I knew it would... make the dish watery later. Anyway, it was great...I suggest a 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese to the recipe instead of 1/4 cup... Will definitely make this again...Read more
