We had this last night and it was delicious! It had been quite a while since I had made one of these "impossible pies". I had some beautiful yellow crooked neck squash and also some nice zucchini and fresh farm-grown onions I had picked up at the farmers market I visited this past Wednesday. Looking around for something to make with them, I stumbled on a recipe for this easy 'pie". Mine turned out more like a custard souffle than a pie, because I used a deep dish instead of a pie plate and maybe because I also used whipping cream.

Yellow Squash, Zucchini & Onion Impossible Custard Pie

2 1/2 cups veggies (I used the above mentioned)

1 cup shredded cheese (I used 1/2 cup Swiss only)

1-1/2 cup milk (I used 1 cup whipping cream and 1/2 cup no fat milk)

3/4 cup Bisquick

3 large eggs

Salt & Pepper to taste

Cut the veggies in thin slices and sauté in small amount butter until soft but not limp.

In a blender, mix milk, eggs, flour and seasonings until flour is well incorporated.

Pour all into a buttered high side 2 quart souffle dish (or in a pie dish) and bake at 400 F for 25 to 30 minutes. I had a bit of the liquid that didn't fit in the mold I used but saved it to use for something else today.

BTW, if you add a dollop of sour cream on top of your serving, it takes it beyond delicious!

YIELD: 4-6 side portions

That looks so good, Sonia! What a great way to use up leftover veggies too!

Sonia M. Apr 5, 2011, 7:24pm UTC

It certainly is, Donna! Maybe because I used less cheese and some cream instead of all milk, but this was so custardy....it was better than I ever remember making this when we used to make it years ago for the deli at the Inn
