Sour Cream Apple Pie

Recipes »  Desserts  »  Pies

A delicious upgrade on a classic, this is the best apple pie we've ever had.

"LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS. I made it for my boyfriend and we ended up eating the whole pie in one day! Now its his favorite and he wants me to make it all the time! The sour cream makes a nice cream with the apples. I always double the sugar butter crust it makes the pie so delicious and sometimes add just a dash of cinnamon to the apples filling. "

Sour Cream Apple Pie Preparation

Roll out the dough 1/8 inch thick on a lightly floured surface, fit it into a 10-inch (6-cup capacity) pie plate, and flute the edge decoratively. Chill the shell while making the topping and the filling.

Make the topping:

In a small bowl blend together the butter, the sugar, the cinnamon, and the flour until the mixture is combined well and chill the topping, covered, while making the filling.

Make the filling:

In a large bowl whisk together the sour cream, the sugar, the salt, the vanilla, the eggs, and the flour until the mixture is smooth, add the apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thin, and stir the filling until it is combined well.

Spoon the filling into the chilled shell, smoothing the top, and crumble the topping evenly over it. Bake the pie in the middle of a preheated 350F. oven for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, or until it is golden and the apples are tender, transfer it to a rack, and let it cool completely.

I loved this pie! The apples I used were still a little too firm but it tasted great!

I never write a review but had to for this pie. It was delicious! My family and friends said it was the best apple pie they had. After reading the reviews I took the suggestion of doubling the topping. I will never make a 'normal' apple pie again.

Awesome recipe...I made some adjustments as after I started I realized I was missing sour cream. I used the same amount of coconut Greek yogurt as a substitute and added mango slices. Turned into a custard

Made this pie today for my son's birthday. Although I wasn't that crazy about it, my family all seemed to really like it. Too tart for me! I might add a little more sugar next time.

This was my first ever attempt at baking and it was a huge hit! My wife said I'll have to make it for all the holidays in the future.

Loved the creamy insides. I would add more cinnamon/topping--perhaps double it--but other than that, divine! And I can barely cook toast right, so this is saying something
