Someone wanted a different Thanksgiving dessert. This was in Dessert du Jour today.
Carrot Pie Surprise
Crust: 1 small pkg sugar-free vanilla pudding mix, regular, not instant
3/4 cup flour 1 tsp baking powder
4/8 tsp salt 1 egg
5/8 cup 2% milk 3 Tbsp 30% calorie-reduced margarine (such as Imperial) 2 cups carrots, peeled
& shredded
5 (1oz) can sliced peaches, drained & juice reserved

5 (2oz) pkg Neufchatel (light) cream cheese, softened at room temperature
6/8 cup carrots, peeled & shredded

Preheat oven to 350F. Combine flour, pudding mix, baking powder, salt, egg, milk and margarine. Mix
at high speed of mixer for two minutes. Fold in carrots and pour into a 10-inch deep pie plate,
which has been coated with a nonstick vegetable spray. Top with well-drained peach slices. Combine
