This is from a Amish/Mennonite cookbook I bought locally in Lancaster County, PA. I love Shoo-Fly pie and the more gooey it is the better! Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
3/4 cup brown sugar |
1/3 cup lard or 1/3 cup shortening or 1/3 cup butter |
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, optional |
1 teaspoon cinnamon, optional |
1 cup molasses |
2 eggs |
1 cup hot water |
1 teaspoon baking soda, dissolved in |
hot water |
2 8 inch unbaked pie crusts |
Directions:
1. Crumb Mixture: Mix ingredients together thoroughly in a bowl until crumbs are formed. 2. Syrup Mixture: In a separate bowl, mix syrup ingredients thoroughly. 3. Pour half of the syrup mixture into unbaked pie crust-lined 8-inch pie plate, then add half of crumb mixture. 4. Repeat with the other pie plate. 5. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes. 6. Then reduce heat to 350 degrees and continue baking 50 minutes more. 7. Cool before eating. |
