Ingredients

1 9-inch Pie Shell
¼ cup Shortening
1 Egg (beaten)
¾ cup Hot Water
1 ½ cups All-Purpose Flour
1 cup Molasses
¾ teaspoon Baking Soda

Set the oven on preheat mode to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
In a medium bowl, add molasses, hot water, and baking soda. Combine them well and whisk some beaten eggs in it.
Take the pie shell and pour this mixture in it. This makes the bottom layer of the pie.
In another bowl, add flour and brown sugar. Mix them well and add some shortening to it to make it look like coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle this mixture over the molasses layer.
Bake it in the oven for 15 minutes. Now, reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C ).
Bake it again for 30 minutes until the crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly.
Allow it to cool and serve with tasty coffee.
