Ingredients
  

  • 1 pie shell, 9-inch

For the Filling

  • 3/4 cup hot water
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup molasses, (283 grams )
  • 1 egg, large, beaten

For the Crumb Topping

  • 1 1/4 cups flour, 177 grams
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, 165 grams
  • Dash salt
  • 4 tablespoons butter, 57 grams

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 425° F.
  • In a bowl, dissolve the baking powder in the boiling water. Stir in molasses. Add the beaten egg and whisk until well blended.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and a dash of salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Pour the molasses filling into the crust and sprinkle the crumb mixture over all. 
  • Place the pie on a baking sheet and carefully place it in the oven. Bake at 425° for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350° F and continue baking for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the filling is set.
