List of Ingredients
4 cups flour
1 cup sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
Melted butter, about 1/4 cup
1 cup shortening
3 eggs, beaten
1 cup sour cream
2 cans pie filling (your choice, we used cherry)
Sugar or brown sugar
Recipe
Lightly grease a jelly roll pan (15-by-10-by-1-inches), set aside.
Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Blend in shortening. Gradually add the beaten eggs, then the sour cream, mixing well to form a dough. Divide in half.
Press half into the jelly roll pan. (Dust your hands with a little flour if dough is too sticky or add a little milk if it is too dry.) Spread the pie filling over this. Roll out the remaining dough and cover all the filling with it. This is not like pie crust; you have to piece it together. (It doesn't look perfect or smooth like a pie.)
With a pastry brush, spread a little melted butter over the top and sprinkle with granulated or brown sugar. Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 40 minutes.
