Carrot Pie

Ingredients:

1 deep, 9 inch, unbaked pie crust
2 eggs
2 cups carrot puree
¾ cup sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp salt
½ tsp ground ginger
¼ tsp ground cloves
1 355 ml can evaporated milk
whipped cream for garnish

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F).

In a mixer, beat the eggs. Add carrot puree and mix well. Make sure you mix on low speed to avoid adding air to your pie filling. The air will temporarily increase the volume of the filling, making it difficult to get it all into the pie crust, but will collapse as the cooked pie cools, leaving your pie under filled.

In a small bowl, combine sugar, cinnamon, salt, ginger, and cloves, then add to carrot puree and mix well. Add evaporated milk and mix.

Pour filling into the unbaked pie crust and jiggle a little bit to level. Bake in a 220°C (425°F) oven for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 175°C (350°:F) and bake for another 45 minutes (approximately). The pie is done when the center jiggles just slightly when you gently shake it.

Remove the pie from the oven and cool on a rack in a warm place in your kitchen. If the pie cools too quickly, it will crack. If you kitchen is very cool, turn off the oven and leave the pie inside with the door propped open for 30 to 45 minutes before moving to a rack to finish cooling.

For an extra special touch, sweeten your cream with maple syrup instead of sugar when you are whipping it.

Serves: 8-12 portions, depending on the size of your slices.
Prep time: 20 minutes active, about 3 hours total.
