How to Make Evie's Shoofly Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar.
- Cut in ½ cup cold shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a small bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon baking soda in 2 tablespoons boiling water.
- Stir in 2-4 tablespoons cold water until a soft dough forms.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar until well combined.
- Stir in 1 cup molasses to the egg and brown sugar mixture.
- Gradually add the baking soda mixture to the molasses mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Pour the molasses filling into a 9-inch unbaked pie crust.
- Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the filling.
- Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any spills.
- Bake for 10 minutes at 350°F (175°C).
- Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (165°C) and bake for an additional 50-60 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
