Instructions
- Place pie crusts in 9 inch pie pans. Chill the crusts approximately 1 hour before use.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- In a medium bowl, stir together the baking soda and warm water. Mix in the molasses and stir until foamy. Transfer the mixture to the pie crusts.
- In a medium bowl, mix together flour, sugar and baking soda. Use a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour mixture until very fine crumbs have formed. Sprinkle the crumbs over the molasses mixture in the pie crusts.
