Servings 9 people

Ingredients
  

Crust:

  • 2/3 cup butter
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 2/3 cups flour
  • 1 tsp. baking powder

Filling:

  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • ¾ cup sour cream
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla
  • 2 apples peeled and grated finely
  • sugar & cinnamon mixture

Instructions
 

  • Use a mixer to combine the crust ingredients. Press into a greased pan. (I have used either a large pie pan or 2 small pie pans. Adjust baking times accordingly.)
  • Use a fork or whisk to combine the filling ingredients. Pour over the crust.
  • Sprinkle the grated apples over the filling. Sprinkle the cinnamon/sugar mixture over the apples.
  • Bake at 350 for 35-45 minutes, depending on your pan size.
  • The pie will still be jiggly when removed from the oven, but it will continue to set as it cools. The pie tastes best when it served a little bit warm.

Notes

This is a very old recipe from Ann-Sofi and Hans' mother. She was a faithful Lutheran woman known for her delicious food, gracious hospitality, and service to others.
