You can switch out the vanilla for another extract and use just about any apples you like. If you are not a fan of pecans, you can use walnuts or leave the nuts out all together.
🍽️HOW TO MAKE
The hardest part about this recipe is cutting up the apples or making a homemade pie crust. If you use a store-bought, it does save time.
COOKING STEPS
Step 1
Peel and chop up apples
Step 2
Preheat oven to 400. In a large bowl mix sour cream, flour, sugar, cinnamon, all spice, salt, vanilla and egg. Fold in apples and pour in pie pan.
Step 4
In a small bowl cut butter into flour and sugar. I use a fork and just kind of mash it all up together. Stir nuts in to the topping and sprinkle topping over the entire pie before baking. Bake on 400 for 15 minutes. Turn oven down to 350 and bake for another 45 minutes until pie tests done.
⭐TIP
I chop some extra pecans to put on top so that it looks better with the crumble. I also love this pie with ice cream or whipped cream! Both are delicious.
