1 (9 inch) unbaked pie shell
¾ cup sugar
2 cups chopped carrots

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Press the pie crust into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 4h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

Cooking spray
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup sliced almonds
1 1/2 cups grated carrots (about 3 medium)
1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 tablespoon molasses
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon salt
For the filling and toppings:
1 8-ounce can crushed pineapple in juice
1 8-ounce package cream cheese
1/2 cup 2% plain Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1 large egg
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Thinly sliced dried pineapple and sliced almonds, for topping

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Coat a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. Pulse the flour, sugar and almonds in a food processor until combined. Add the carrots; pulse until finely chopped. Add the butter, molasses, cinnamon, allspice and salt; pulse until the dough comes together in large clumps. Dampen your hands and press the dough into the bottom and up the side of the prepared pie plate. Freeze until firm, at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the crust with foil, then fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until dry and set around the edge, about 20 minutes. Remove the weights and foil and continue baking until the bottom is dry, 8 to 10 more minutes. Let cool 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling: Wipe out the food processor. Add the canned pineapple, cream cheese, yogurt, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and allspice and puree until smooth. Add the egg and flour; pulse until just combined.
  • Pour the filling into the crust; bake until the edge is set but the center still jiggles slightly, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely. Top with dried pineapple and sliced almonds.

2 1/2 cups grated carrot
1 1/2 cups walnut pieces
1 cup chopped pineapple, fresh or canned
1 cup golden raisins
1 cup shredded coconut
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Powdered sugar

Steps:

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for carrots that are firm and brightly colored. Avoid carrots that are limp or have blemishes.
  • Peel the carrots thinly: This will help the carrots cook evenly and prevent them from becoming tough.
  • Grate the carrots finely: This will help them blend into the filling smoothly.
  • Toast the walnuts: Toasting the walnuts will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Use a combination of spices: The combination of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger gives the pie a warm and inviting flavor.
  • Don't overcook the filling: The filling should be thick and bubbly, but not dry. Overcooking will make the filling tough.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.

Conclusion:

This carrot spice and walnut pie is a delicious and unique dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet carrots, warm spices, and crunchy walnuts makes this pie a real treat. With its easy-to-follow recipe and impressive presentation, this pie is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
