Ingredients

For the Filling:

  • 6 cups zucchini, peeled and diced
  • ¼ cup lemon juice
  • ⅔ cup granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup quick cook oatmeal
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the peeled and diced zucchini with lemon juice, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg and flour. Pour into a 2 qt. baking dish.
  2. In a bowl, combine all the crumble top ingredients. Using your hands, combine butter with dry ingredients until crumbly (this takes a few minutes). Sprinkle over the top of the zucchini mixture and press firmly.
