My mom makes the best apple pie! And yes, the secret ingredient is sour cream... and the granny smith apples.
Every Thanksgiving and Christmas we'll make this apple pie together and every now and then I'll make it for my friends and they love it.
Since this is – one of the – best bits of info my mom has ever shared with me, I'd like to share it with you. So here it is (drum roll please), my mom's highly desired sour cream apple pie recipe:
Molly's Mom's Sour Cream Apple Pie
