Deluxe Sour Cream Apple Pie
Ingredients
  • 1 unbaked 9 inch pie crust
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups diced apples
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup chilled butter, diced
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to its highest temperature setting, 425 degrees F (220 degrees C), for optimal results.
2
Place the pie crust into and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate, ensuring it is securely positioned.
3
Start by combining sugar, flour, and salt in a medium-sized bowl; then add sour cream, egg, and vanilla to create a smooth mixture.
4
Add sliced apples to the bowl and mix until they are evenly coated with the liquid ingredients.
5
Transfer the apple mixture into the prepared pie shell, making sure to fill it completely.
6
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then decrease the heat to its next lower setting, 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and continue baking for an additional 30 minutes.
7
While the pie is in the oven, prepare the topping by mixing flour, sugar, and cinnamon together in a separate medium-sized bowl.
8
Use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until you achieve a crumbly texture.
9
After the initial 30-minute baking time has passed, cover the top of the pie with the crumb topping and continue to bake until it is lightly browned and the apples are tender, approximately 15 minutes.
10
Once the pie has finished baking, allow it to cool before refrigerating it until chilled, making it perfect for serving.
