I am trying new apple recipes. Yes, I cheated and tried these pies. They are great. Steve and I both liked the Sour Cream the best, but we will definitely be making both pies again.
Sour Cream Apple Pie with Streusel Topping
Filling:
1 c. sour cream
2/3 sugar
2 TB. flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
3 c. peeled thinly sliced apples
1 9 in pie shell, frozen or chilled in the freezer at least 30 minutes
Topping:
1/2 c. brown sugar packed
1/3 c. flour
1/4 c. butter room temperature
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
Preheat oven to 400*. Beat together sour cream, sugar, flour, salt, vanilla and egg. (You can beat by hand, which I did.) Add apples, mixing carefully to coat well. Put filling into shell and bake at 400* for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with Cinnamon Crumb Topping. Bake an additional 20 minutes. Let cool an hour before serving. Serves 8.
Yummy crunchy Caramel Apple Pie
Pastry for single crust pie...( I just buy the pastry from Pillsbury or Western Family)
1/2 c. sugar
3 TB. flour
1tsp. cinnamon
1/8 tsp salt
6 c. thinly sliced peeled apples
Crumb Topping
1 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 c flour
1/2 c. quick cooking rolled oats
1/2 c. butter
Final Topping
1/4 c. caramel ice cream topping
1/2 c. chopped pecans
In a large mixing bowl, stir together the sugar,flour,cinnamon and salt. Add apple slices and gently toss until they are well coated. Tranfer to pie shell.
For crumb topping: Stir together brown sugar, flour and oats. Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the topping resemble coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over apple mixture in pie. To prevent overbrowning while baking, cover edge of pan with foil. Bake at 375* for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake 25 -30 minutes longer. (I actually raised the temp after 25 minutes to add the sour cream pie- it worked great). Remove from oven, Drizzle top with caramel topping and sprinkle with pecans. Cool on wire rack.
