- 1 cup molasses or dark corn syrup
- 3/4 cup boiling water
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- In a small bowl, crumb together the flour, dark brown sugar, butter and salt. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, beat the egg and then gradually stir in the molasses or dark corn syrup until mixed well.
- In a measuring cup or small bowl, add the baking soda to the boiling water and stir to dissolve. Then add the water to the molasses mixture and stir until well mixed. Pour the liquid mixture into the pie crust(s).
