Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place pie crust in shallow 9-inch pie plate and flute edges.

In large bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, butter, and salt; mix well and reserve 1 cup mixture.

In medium bowl, combine egg, molasses, and cold water; mix gently and set aside.

In small bowl, mix hot water and baking soda and stir into molasses mixture. Stir molasses mixture into flour mixture and pour into pie shell. Top with reserved flour mixture.

Bake 35 to 40 minutes. Pie will firm up as it cools. Cool completely before cutting.
