Crumb toppings resist sogginess decently well if you've put enough
butter in them. The pie is sterilized, so any critters in the sour cream
have been well-killed. It'll be fine.
I made aan apple pour pie tonight. As I have a zillion times before.
Cameo apples, double crust, bit of corn starch, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg,
cloves. And after pulling it out of the oven, pour a few tablespoons
heavy cream into the vents in the top crust. Leave it out to cool on the
counter. Eat it all tomorrow.
