Before serving, drizzle individual slices with additional molasses for an extra touch of flavor.
For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of softened butter. Simply melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, cooking until it turns a nutty brown color. Let it cool slightly before using.
A blind-baked pie crust is essential to prevent a soggy bottom. Use pie weights or dried beans to weigh down the crust during the pre-baking process.
If the pie crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil or a pie shield.
Adjust the amount of molasses to your liking. For a more pronounced molasses flavor, add an extra tablespoon to the filling.
