Pennsylvania Dutch Shoofly Pie image

Dark molasses is front and center in the filling of this shoofly pie. The crust is perfectly crimped, the filling is luscious, and the amount of buttery crumbles on top is generous; you might have to shoo your family away so they don't sneak some before it's time for dessert.

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 12

Pie Dough
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup unsulfured molasses
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 large egg, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Roll out dough on a lightly floured work surface to 1/8 inch thick. Fit dough into a 9-inch pie plate. Trim edges to leave a 1-inch overhang; fold edges under, and crimp with your fingers. Freeze pie shell 30 minutes or overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Whisk together flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add butter, and work mixture through your fingers until it forms fine crumbs; set crumb topping aside.
  • Stir together boiling water, molasses, and corn syrup in a medium bowl. Whisk in baking soda, egg, and a pinch of salt. Pour molasses mixture into prepared pie shell. Scatter crumb topping over filling. Place pie on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until filling is set and topping is deep golden brown, about 50 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack 30 minutes.

This pie is a great way to use up leftover molasses. It's also a great dessert to serve in the fall or winter.

I followed the recipe exactly and my pie turned out great! The filling was smooth and creamy, and the crust was golden brown and flaky.

This pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think I just need to use less molasses next time. The crust was flaky and the filling was thick and gooey.

This pie was so easy to make and turned out so delicious! I used a store-bought pie crust and it still came out great. The filling is perfectly sweet and the crumb topping is addictive.

I've tried many shoofly pie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The crust is flaky and the filling is rich and flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe.
