Follow The Directions

01

Step

Chill the pie crusts: Place pie crusts in 9 inch pie pans. Chill the crusts approximately 1 hour before use.

02

Step

Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). (5 minutes)

03

Step

Prepare the wet mixture: In a medium bowl, stir together the baking soda and warm water. Mix in the molasses and stir until foamy. Transfer the mixture to the pie crusts. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Make the crumb topping: In a medium bowl, mix together flour, sugar and baking soda. Use a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour mixture until very fine crumbs have formed. Sprinkle the crumbs over the molasses mixture in the pie crusts. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Bake the pie: Bake in the preheated oven 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and continue baking 35 minutes, or until crust is lightly browned and the filling has set. (45 minutes)

For an enhanced flavor, consider using dark molasses.
If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil.
A dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream makes a wonderful accompaniment.
