Ingredients

• 12 pieces Pre-made mini pie crusts (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 cup Brown sugar
• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 0.75 cup Molasses
• 0.75 cup Boiling water
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 large Egg, lightly beaten
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the mini pie crusts on a baking sheet and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, all-purpose flour, and ground cinnamon. Mix well.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside 3/4 cup of this mixture for the topping.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, mix the molasses with boiling water. Stir until the molasses fully dissolves.

Step 5

Add the baking soda to the molasses mixture and stir until it begins to foam.

Step 6

Whisk the beaten egg into the molasses mixture until everything is fully combined.

Step 7

Distribute the molasses filling evenly among the mini pie crusts, filling each about 2/3 full.

Step 8

Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture evenly over the tops of each pie, ensuring they are well-coated.

Step 9

Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 16-18 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crumb topping is lightly golden brown.

Step 10

Remove the Shoofly Minis from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
