It is said that this pie got it's name because
as it sat on the window sill to cool they had
to wave ars to shoo the flies away from it.
It's a good pie if you like sticky sweet pies.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup molasses
4 eggs
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
One 9-inch frozen ready-to-bake pie shell, thawed
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, combine 1/4 cup flour,
the corn syrup, molasses, eggs, and baking soda;
mix well and pour into the pie shell.
In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 cup
flour, the butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg;
stir until crumbly then sprinkle evenly
over the corn syrup mixture.
Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until firm.

room temperature before serving.
