substituting whole milk organic yogurt for sour cream

I rarely buy sour cream, and actually prefer yogurt as a replacement with much of what I assemble in the kitchen.

I'm always lookin for The Best pie crust recipe, and your Single-Crust Pie Dough recipe calls for 2 T of sour cream. May I substitute yogurt, for the sour cream? Would Greek yogurt, which is quite dense work better than whole milk yogurt?

Thanks

    Hi Suzanne - We haven't tested this, but I think it would probably work fine. Just make sure to use full-fat yogurt. Good luck and let us know how it turns out! Best, Lynn C.
