Zucchini Ham and Cheese Pie is a comforting, savory pie that combines fresh zucchini, diced ham, and melted cheese for the perfect meal. This easy-to-make dish is baked in a springform pan, making it simple to slice into wedges and serve. Whether for brunch, lunch, or dinner, this pie is packed with flavor and a great way to use up extra zucchini.
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease the sides of a springform pan with cooking spray or butter, and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. Then, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, diced ham, and chopped green onions.
Add the Zucchini: Grate your zucchini. Add it to the dry mixture and stir until everything is evenly combined.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Add the milk, eggs and melted butter to the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
Bake: Pour the mixture into your prepared springform pan, spreading it evenly. If you’d like, sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top for an extra cheesy crust. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, and the top is golden brown.
Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool for a few minutes before removing the sides of the springform pan. Slice into wedges and serve warm.
