Why is it important to drain the water from the grated zucchini?

Draining the zucchini helps prevent the pie from becoming too watery and ensures a firmer, more cohesive texture for your Zucchini Millet Pie.

Can I use a different grain instead of millet in this pie?

While millet provides a unique texture, you could experiment with cooked quinoa or rice, though the overall consistency and baking time might vary slightly from the original Zucchini Millet Pie.

What spices would complement the flavors in this Zucchini Millet Pie?

For this savory pie, consider adding a pinch of dried oregano, thyme, or a dash of smoked paprika to enhance the vegetable and millet flavors.

How can I tell if my Zucchini Millet Pie is fully baked?

The pies are done when they are golden brown on top and firm to the touch, typically after 40-45 minutes at 356 degrees F with a fan.

How should I store leftover Zucchini Millet Pie?

Store any leftover Zucchini Millet Pie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. It can be reheated gently in an oven or microwave.
