You know that when your friend’s smile fills the room as he speaks of his wife’s “sour cream apple pie with a brown sugar crumb topping” that it has to be good. My father and I couldn’t wait to try it!

My oh my this one really is good, and easy to make too.

In this recipe you toss apple slices with a mixture of sour cream, sugar, and egg, then pack it in a pie shell. About half way through baking you top with a brown sugar flour butter streusel topping.

The brown sugar helps make a crunchy crust on the top, balancing the creamy tart apples below!

Big thanks to our friends Jean and George for sharing this one with us.
