Shoofly Pie is a traditional PA Dutch
desert. When the early German settlers came to North America they brought
with them non-perishable goods on ships that would survive
the long voyage to America. Staples such as brown sugar, flour, molasses, shortening,
salt, and spices were used to create a three-layer pie with
a gooey bottom, a cake-like middle, and a crumb topping.
Baked and left to cool outside, these pies not only garnered
rousing approval from the settlers, but a few flies buzzed
around, too, giving this native East Coast dish its name.
Perhaps no other single dessert is so identified with Amish
Country as is the shoofly pie. Delicious served warm
and topped with whipped cream or a side of ice cream! Tastes great
with a cup of coffee, too. Shoofly Pie Mix - Everything you need (except the pie crust) to make this classic Pennsylvania Dutch favorite! Follow three simple steps to make your own Pennsylvania Dutch old fashioned Shoofly Pie.
