I was delightfully surprised to find that a squash could taste identical to a fruit. What's more, this crisp is delicious!

Absolutely delicious! Everyone who tried it loved it!
I wish you all could have seen my 11 year old niece's face when she learned there wasn't a single apple in this. The flavors are amazing and it's super easy to make as I feel getting the zucchini ready for the dish is less work than peeling, coring, and slicing a bunch of apples. I think next time I will use more zucchini to get a bigger veggie portion in relation to that delicious buttery crisp topping as I'm but of a health nut.
This is so good. everyone's reviews are correct, you would never know its not made with apples. I added a bit of maple and almond extract to mine, it turned out fantastic. absolutely will make again. I also halved the recipe and turned out great.
This was fantastic!! My family loved it. You would never know it was made with zucchini & not apples!! Fooled everyone!!
Excellent recipe!
this really does taste like apple crisp. I took it in to work and they asked me how i made it taste like apples
I had tasted this recipe before, but when my cousin came we made it. She couldn't believe how much like apples it tasted--she made such a big deal about it that we had to tell my husband it wasn't apples. :)
Very easy to make and truly does taste like apples. No one would ever know! A great way to use up some of my bumper crop.
I HAVE BEEN MAKING THIS DESSERT FOR SEVERAL YEARS. MY HUSBAND LOVES IT. HE IS AN APPLE FAN. IT IS AMAZING THAT IT TASTES LIKE APPLES.
