"Før", here, is being used as a conjunction, rather than an adverb, so the clause still keeps its SVO word order after it.
Just a thought: The sentence is not logical. It implies that I eat the pies anyway, as in "My mother serves the pies before I eat them". But in this exercise I can't eat them because they are stolen. So the correct sentence should read: "Bjørnen stjæler alle mine tærter før jeg kan spiser dem" and "The bear steals all my pies before I can eat them", respectively.
