A "must" to end your meal is this famed cross between crumb cake and pie. Line a pie plate with your favorite crust recipe. Mix together flour, brown sugar, and shortening. Season with cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and salt. Make another mixture of molasses, egg yolk and baking soda dissolved in boiling water. Build alternate layers of liquid ond crumbs in pie pan, ending with layer of crumbs. Bake at 450 degrees until crust starts to brown, reduce heat to 350 until center of pie is firm.
