Shoo-Fly Pie Recipe
- 1 unbaked 9 inch pie crust (I halved this
- from the Food Lab)
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 cup molasses
- 1 large egg, slightly beaten
- 3/4 cup cold water
- 1 teaspoon baking soda dissolved in 1/4 cup hot water
- Preheat oven to 375u0b0F. Roll out your pie dough and place in pie dish.
- In the bowl of a food processor add brown sugar and flour. Pulse several times to combine. Add butter pieces and pulse several more times until crumbs begin to form. Divide mixture and set half aside for the topping.
- In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer add molasses, egg, cold water, hot water and baking soda solution and whisk to combine. Add crumb mixture and whisk until just combined.
- Brush pie shell with egg wash. Pour filling mixture into unbaked pie shell. Sprinkle reserved crumbs on top. Bake 35 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely before cutting.
