Zucchini Pie Bars

Recipesfull introduces to you: Pie Recipes. (Zucchini Pie Bars). Amazing apple-tasting pie bars. The lemon juice adds tartness. Spices and sugar give it the apple pie taste. I used a large zucchini that friends let get too big. As long as the seeds are removed, no one can tell it's not apples! Little bars of mock apple pie! Can be served warm with ice cream.
