We've decided to share our famous shoo-fly pie recipe with you. You may click here if you want to
order one, but I strongly encourage you to try and make it yourself. It's really not that hard and
in my opinion, it is always better when it is fresh. Seriously, just try it!
***** Shoo-fly Pie
*****
ingredients
directions
1 cup flour
3/4 cup Brown Sugar
1 heaping TBSP Crisco Shortening
1 cup King Syrup
1 tea. baking soda
3/4 cup boiling water
1 beaten egg
Mix flour, brown sugar and shortening into crumbs. Split the crumb mixture in half. Set the one
half aside for crumbs.
Pour the King Syrup in the other half of the crumb mixture. Mix the baking soda
in the boiling water. When this fizzes, pour on top of the king syrup/crumb mixture. If the soda/water doesn't
fizz, you didn't get your water hot enough or your baking soda is bad. Dump out water and try again.
Pie won't rise if it doesn't fizz. Add 1 beaten egg. Mix with fork.
Pour in unbaked pie shell. If you
don't want to make your own shell, just use one of those fold out pillsbury ones. Top with crumbs.
Bake in
preheated 375 oven. Bake 10 minutes. Don't open the door, turn oven down to 350. Bake an additional 30-40 minutes.
