A classic Pennsylvania Dutch dessert pie with rich molasses flavor and a crumb topping, evoking nostalgia and warmth.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup molasses
  • 1/2 cup hot water
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 unbaked pie crust

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Combine the flour, brown sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Mix until crumbly, reserving a handful for the topping.
  3. Whisk together the molasses, hot water, baking soda, vanilla extract, and salt in a separate bowl until well combined.
  4. Pour the molasses mixture into the unbaked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
  5. Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture on top of the molasses filling.
  6. Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until set.
  7. Cool the pie before slicing to allow the filling to solidify further.

Notes

Pairs wonderfully with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
