Step 1
First, you need to prepare the dough. Sift the flour through a sieve and add baking powder to it. You can substitute baking powder with regular baking soda. Pour the flour with baking powder into a large bowl, add melted butter and sour cream, as well as half a cup of granulated sugar. Knead a firm, elastic dough.

Step 2
Wash the apples, peel them, and remove the cores with seeds. It's best to choose a sweet-sour variety with a pronounced aroma. Grate the prepared fruits on a coarse grater. Also peel and grate the lemon. Remove any seeds if encountered. Add a cup of sugar and thoroughly mix all the filling ingredients.

Step 3
Grease the baking pan you'll use for the pie with a small amount of vegetable or butter oil to prevent the pie from sticking. Divide the dough into two parts so that one piece is twice as large as the other. Roll out the larger piece into a flat layer, place it into the baking pan, forming the edges. Put the filling on top of the dough.

Step 4
Roll out the remaining dough, pre-dusting both sides with flour. Then place it over the grated apples and lemon, carefully and thoroughly sealing the edges. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and bake the pie for 40 minutes. Remove the finished pie from the oven, let it cool, and generously dust it with powdered sugar.
