SHOOFLY PIE
My grandmother made the best shoofly pie in the tradition of the Pennsylvania Dutch. Shoofly pie is to the Pennsylvania Dutch as pecan pie is to a Southerner. -Mark Morgan, Waterford, Wisconsin

TRADITIONAL SHOOFLY PIE
It's gooey sweet and unadorned by a top crust. What better invitation to come join the party does a hungry insect need? It should be called "molasses pie," but it's whimsically named shoofly because its "open" structure lures flies that must be shooed away. Shoofly Pie is thought to be a Pennsylvania Dutch creation, and may be a direct descendant of "Centennial Cake" introduced at the first World's Fair -- the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exposition.

AUTHENTIC SHOO FLY PIE (STRAIGHT FROM LANCASTER CO.)
Born, raised & still residing in Lancaster County Amish/PA Dutch Country this is as authentic as it gets. This recipe is from the Mennonite Community Cookbook that's older than me & given to me by my mother. I saw a few other versions posted, but none were like this one. You could use 9 inch pre-pared pie crust but for the real deal you may want to start from scratch (see my recipe #163245 for the crust that goes with).

Steps:
- In medium bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening using pastry blender, until mixture forms pea-size chunks. Sprinkle with water, one tablespoon at a time. Toss lightly with fork until dough forms ball.
- Wrap in plastic wrap, flatten slightly into a disk, and place in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Roll out onto a lightly flour surface into a circle about 2 inches wider than pie pan; place crust into a 9 inch deep-dish pie pan, crimp edges as desired. If using a regular depth pie pan, build your crust edges up high when crimping.
- Line un-baked pie crust with heavy-duty foil. Bake at 350 F degrees for 10 minutes. Remove foil, brush crust with beaten egg yolk. Bake 5 minutes longer, cool on wire rack.
- In a mixing bowl, place the 1 cup all purpose flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg; combine well with fork or spoon to eliminate lumps.
- Add the 2 Tablespoons butter and 2 Tablespoons shortening to the bowl (or the 1/4 cup fat of your choice) and, using a fork, pastry blender, or your fingers, combine to make fairly fine crumbs.
- In another mixing bowl or 4 cup glass measuring cup, place the 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 1/2 teaspoons all purpose flour listed for the liquid filling. Blend the dry ingredients together with a fork or spoon to help eliminate clumps.
- Next, add the 1/2 cup unsulphured baking molasses, the beaten egg, and the 1 teaspoon vanilla to the dry mixture; blend together well, using a spoon or whisk making sure the dry ingredients are mixed in.
- Add the 1 cup boiling water to the molasses mixture, SLOWLY streaming it in while stirring or whisking to avoid curdling the raw egg, Stir or whisk until well blended. The mixture will appear "foamy" at this point.
- Place pie pan with unbaked crust on a baking sheet large enough to catch any drips or spills, then pour all of the molasses mixture carefully into the pie shell.
- Using your fingers or a spoon, sprinkle the entire bowl of crumbs evenly on top of the liquid filling in the crust; pay attention to getting some crumbs right up to the edge of the pie crust as well.
- Place the tray with the filled crust carefully into the oven. Bake 375 F degrees about 35 to 40 minutes. Pie will "puff" while baking, but will firm up and settle some as it cools.
- Serve warm, room temperature, or chilled. Pie can be stored on the counter for 3 days, refrigerate leftovers after that time.
