• 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.
• 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.
• 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.

SHOOFLY PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Pulse the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor. Add about one-third of the butter and pulse until the mixture looks like cornmeal. Add the remaining butter and pulse 3 times, or until the mixture looks like coarse meal with pea-size bits of butter. Drizzle in 3 tablespoons ice water and the vinegar and pulse 3 or 4 times, just until combined (do not let the dough come together into a ball). Pinch the dough between your fingers; if it doesn't hold together, add up to 2 more tablespoons ice water, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, pulsing. Turn out onto a sheet of plastic wrap and pat the dough into a disk; wrap tightly and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
• Roll out the dough into an 11-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edges with your fingers. Refrigerate the crust 1 hour.
• Place a baking sheet on the middle oven rack and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Make the filling: Whisk the flour, brown sugar and butter in a large heatproof bowl; set aside 2/3 cup of the mixture for topping. Whisk the egg, molasses and baking soda into the remaining brown sugar mixture, then whisk in 3/4 cup boiling water until smooth.
• Pour the filling into the chilled crust. Sprinkle the reserved brown sugar mixture on top. Carefully transfer the pie plate to the hot baking sheet and bake 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue baking until the crust is golden and the filling is firm, 40 to 45 more minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool; serve warm or at room temperature.

SHOOFLY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the rolled-out crust.
• To make the crumb topping, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and butter and mix with a pastry blender or food processor until thoroughly combined and the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
• To make the liquid bottom layer, mix the molasses and corn syrup, pour in the boiling water, and stir until evenly combined. Add the egg and baking soda and mix well.
• Pour the liquid bottom layer into the crust, then sprinkle the crumb mixture over the top.
• Bake for about 40 minutes, until medium set and dark brown. The filling should wobble very slightly in the center when the pan is jiggled, but a knife inserted in the center should come out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 1 to 2 hours before slicing. Serve warm or chilled, topped with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce if you like.
