List of Ingredients




4 cups sliced fresh carrots
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Dash salt
1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches)
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons butter, melted

Recipe



Add 1 in. of water to a large saucepan; add carrots. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 9-11 minutes or until tender. Drain and cool.

Place the carrots, milk, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and salt in a blender. Cover and process until pureed; process 1 minute longer. Pour into pastry shell. Combine the pecans, brown sugar and butter; sprinkle over filling.

Bake at 375° for 45-50 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean and edges are browned. (Cover edges of crust with foil during the last 20 minutes to prevent overbrowning if necessary.) Cool on a wire rack. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 6-8 servings.
