Southern Sour Cream Peach Pie

For those who love pies AND sour cream, here's a nice variation, courtesy of a local newspaper clipping from years ago. Although this recipe calls for fresh peaches, it has been made at times with canned peaches, but needless to say, fresh peaches are the best! [NOTE: Edited on 8 Apr 2011 to include the pie shell in the ingredients, as per 2Bleu's review suggestion!]
