Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (9-inch) refrigerated pie crust
  • 1 cup molasses
  • 3/4 cup boiling water
  • 1 large egg (room temperature)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter (softened)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch deep dish pie pan with nonstick spray.
  2. Press the pie crust evenly into the pie pan and crimp the edges.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the molasses with hot water until well combined. Lightly beat the egg and add it to the molasses mixture, then stir in the baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well and transfer the filling to the pie crust.
  4. Combine the flour and brown sugar in another bowl. Work in the softened butter until the mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the pie filling.
  5. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and bake uncovered for 40 minutes or until the center is set.
  6. Serve warm or at room temperature after letting the pie rest for about 15 minutes.

Notes

Allow the egg to reach room temperature before mixing for a smooth filling. Cover cooled pie and store at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
