I make a variety of different apple pies, but this is a favorite amongst most of my families, and the one that my adult children and brothers and sisters always demand I make for the holidays. Enjoy our family favorite Sour Cream Apple Pie recipe.
Pie:
- 1 unbaked 9-inch unbaked pie crust
- 1 slightly beaten egg
- 1 (8-oz) ctn. sour cream
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 Tbsp. flour
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 4 cups coarsely chopped, peeled tart apples
Streusel Topping:
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 Tbsp. butter
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a large bowl stir together the egg, sour cream, granulated sugar, 2 Tbsp. flour, vanilla, and salt. Stir in chopped apples. Pour the mixture into the unbaked pie crust. Cover edge of pie crust with foil. Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes.
While pie is baking make streusel topping. In a small mixing bowl combine the 1/2 cup flour and the brown sugar. cut in butter until crumbly.
After the pie has baked for 25 minutes, remove foil from pie and sprinkle with streusel topping. Bake 20 more minutes, or until top is golden brown. Cool on wire rack. Refrigerate within 2 hours; cover for longer storage.
