The sour cream really mellows out the flavor of this pie filling. It's
not sickenly, cloyingly sweet, like so many apple pies are.

Oh good! Thanks for the reminder, Carol. You know my recipe
is a bit different.... I like the idea of slicing the apples
instead of chopping them.... I hadn't noticed that before.
