  13. 1 tbspflour

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Peel and chop carrots.

  2. 2

    Place carrots in a large pot, cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium & simmer until carrots are tender - about 25 - 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Drain water. Return carrots to pot. Cook carrots over low heat for a few minutes, stirring constantly, to steam off all excess water.

  4. 4

    Preheat oven to 350°.

  5. 5

    Puree carrots and butter until absolutely smooth. It's easiest to use a food processor, but you could use a blender, food mill or ricer.

  6. 6

    After the carrots are completely smooth, mix in sugars, eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, ginger, vanilla, half & half and flour until thoroughly combined. I do this in my food processor so I don't dirty any additional dishes :)

  7. 7

    Pour carrot mixture into pie crust/dish.

  8. 8

    Bake for 50-60 minutes or until pie is set and toothpick inserted near center comes out clean.

  9. 9

    Cool on wire rack. Refrigerate for at least an hour or two before serving. Serve with whipped cream & enjoy. Keep pie stored in fridge.
