    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: dutchmom4 / This old-fashioned sweet molasses dessert from Amish Acres in Nappanee, Indiana. Be sure you always save room for pie when you’re dining in Amish country.

    List of Ingredients




    1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup packed brown sugar
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    3 Tablespoons cooking oil
    3/4 cup boiling water
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 cup dark-colored corn syrup
    1/4 cup light molasses
    1 beaten egg
    1 – 9-inch unbaked pie shell
    Fresh currants, optional
    Lemon-peel curls, optional

    Recipe



    In a small mixing bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Mix in oil till mixture is crumbly. Set aside.

    In another mixing bowl, combine the boiling water and baking soda. Stir in the corn syrup and molasses. Let the mixture cool till just warm. Beat in the egg.

    Sprinkle 1/2 cup of flour mixture over the bottom of the unbaked pie shell. Carefully pour in the molasses mixture. Sprinkle remaining flour mixture evenly over pie.

    Bake in a 375-degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes OR till mixture is set. Let cool on a wire rack. Store in the refrigerator. If you like, garnish with fresh currants and thin lemon-peel curls before serving. Makes 8 servings.
