Good 'n Plenty Pennsylvania Dutch Shoo-Fly Pie image

Truly one of my favorite desserts ever! This recipe comes from the AMAZING Good 'N Plenty Family Restaurant in the heart of Lancaster County, PA. Bar none, my favorite restaurant ANYWHERE. (And I get around!) Try this, and prepare to be amazed by the delicious, gooey/crumbly, SWEET richness! One of the characteristics of a traditional Shoo-Fly pie is a crumbly, messy, almost floury crust on top...I understand that all tastes are different, and for that, I'm sorry you and DH didn't like it, Sistah. :(

This pie was easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and it still came out perfect.

I'm not a huge fan of molasses, but I thought this pie was surprisingly good. The crumb topping was especially delicious.

This pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but my husband and kids loved it. I think I'll try using less molasses next time.

This shoo-fly pie was a hit with my family! The molasses filling was rich and flavorful, and the crumb topping was perfectly crispy. I will definitely be making this again.
