Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Add 1 inch of water to a large saucepan; add carrots; bring to a boil; reduce heat; cover; cook for 9-11 minutes or until tender; drain; cool.
Place the carrots, milk, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and salt in a blender; cover; process until pureed; process 1 minute longer. Pour into pastry shell.
Combine pecans, brown sugar and butter; sprinkle over filling.
Bake 45-50 minutes or until a sharp knife inserted near the center comes out clean and edges are browned.
Cover edges of crust with foil during the last 20 minutes to prevent over-browning, if necessary.
