I made this pie several years ago. Did not tell my family that I made it with zucchini. Everyone enjoyed it and then I told them that it was made with zucchini. They all thought that was disgusting. No one ate the last piece. HOWEVER, it did taste just like apple pie.
Thanks for the recipe, I misplaced mine, and I am going to make it again.

You are too funny, mimio. The reason why I never made the mock apple pie again is because I do make a great apple pie. I have won 2 blue ribbons for my apple pies. Sorry, but I just had to brag.
And yes, Sparkys-Mom, Apples are better than Ritz crackers.

What fun to read this thread! I've not tried the Mock Apple Pie, but probably would, in a pinch. My lovely daughter-in-law has made Green Tomato Pie with overabundant fruit that had no chance of ripening before a frost. My son said it tasted darned good!
