Today I’m preserving the last of my cucuzza harvest. I hope you enjoy and y’all have a blessed day!☺️

Mock apple pie filling

24 cups peeled,and sliced zucchini
2 cups apple juice
3 cups white sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice added to each jar
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
4 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
4 tbsp apple pie spice or to taste
1 tbsp vanilla

Place all ingredients in a stock pot. Simmer 25 minutes. If you want to thicken it make a slurry with cornstarch and a few tbsp of water and add to mixture. Pour into clean jars, wipe rings, add lids and water bath process for 15 minutes.
