COLONIAL CARROT PIE


~ Old Shaw Farm

1 1/4 lb. carrots
3/4 c. sugar
1 c. milk
3 eggs
3/4 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. ground ginger
1/4 t. nutmeg
1/8 t. ground cloves
1 unbaked 9-inch pie shell

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Slice carrots and steam until very tender. Puree carrots in blender or food processor until very smooth. Add all remaining ingredients and blend until evenly mixed. Pour into pie shell.

Bake 15 minutes, then turn the oven down to 350 degrees and bake 45 minutes longer, or until set. Cool completely before slicing.

Notes: This tastes very similar to pumpkin pie.
