Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup sugar
1/2-3/4 lb dried apricot
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 eggs (separated)
1 1/3 cups flour
1/4 cup unsalted butter, cold
1/4 cup shortening
1/2 teaspoon salt

  • Turn it out onto a well-floured board.
  • Form it into a disk with your hands and let sit for 15-30 minutes before rolling.

  • Blend together sour cream, 2 tbsp sugar, flour, salt, lemon juice, and vanilla.
  • Separately beat the 3 egg whites until stiff and fold into sour cream filling.
  • Then roll out and line 9" pie tin with dough and gently fill by layering apricots and filling.
  • Brush any remaining exposed crust with the egg yolk.
  • (Can make a top crust or lattice, if desired, by doubling dough recipe.).
