Apple Butter Pie
When the days grow shorter and there's a chilly breeze in the air, it's time to indulge in our favorite fall flavors. Whatever your pleasure, you could start the day with apple muffins for breakfast, caramel apple hand pies for on the go snacking, or apple crumb pie with ice cream for dessert.
Helpful Tips for Making Apple Butter Pie
- You can use a frozen or homemade pie crust for this pie. If you'd like to make your own checkout my recipe for flaky pie crust.
- The color of the pie may vary just a bit depending on the color of the apple butter used.
- You can use purchased or homemade apple butter for this recipe.
- Apple pie spice or cinnamon may be used for the filling. Adjust the amount depending on the level of spice in the particular apple butter used.
- I like to dust the top with additional cinnamon just before serving with whipped cream. This is optional and up to you, of course.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3-5 days chilled or at room temperature. If topped with whipped cream, store chilled.

I love your recipes and have made quite a few. Some time ago I made a raisin pie from a raisin box my k mk it her-in-law had, it was wonderful. I have misplaced the recipe and wonder if you could help me. It wasn’t a name brand of raisin and recipes I’ve googled don’t have the same ingredients I remember. For some reason all I do remember is sour cream being included. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Cheryl
