nancy's "ole"carrot pie
Occasionaly I have some "ole" left over carrots in my crisper, just waiting to be used. Before they go limp, I have to use them up. So why not a carrot pie?? So I put together this simple, quick and easy ole pie.I have made this many times, and I hope you like it as much as I do. I have to admit I love butternut squash pie, more than pumpkin or sweet potato pie. But this one may take it's place! Actually what ever I have on hand works for me. This would make a nice dish for any occasion. But how about for Fathers Day! What man don't like pie!!!

How To Make nancy's "ole"carrot pie
-
Step 1Beat together all ingredients, except the pie shell..LOL. until smooth. Pour into the pie shell.

Step 2Bake in a pre-heated 450F. oven 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 300F. and bake for 50 minutes more or until filling is firm. The last 1/2 hour,you might want to cover the pie edges with strips of aluminum foil, to avoid ugly burnt edges.

Step 3Cool on a rack.. Load on the topping when serving and top with a sprinkle of that good ole spice nutmeg.
