Pineapple-Mango Pie with Macadamia-Coconut Crumb
- 1 recipe Traditional Pastry Piecrust dough for a 9-inch single-crust pie (page 5)
- 1/4 cup heavy cream (to glaze the crimped pie edges)
- Macadamia-Coconut Crumb Topping (page 13)
- 1/2 cup sugar (to taste, depending on the sweetness of the fruit)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 cups 1/2-inch cubed ripe mango
- 2 cups 1/2-inch cubed ripe pineapple
- 1 tablespoon salted butter
- Preheat the oven to 425F.
- To prepare the pie shell, on a clean, lightly floured work surface, roll out half a ball of dough with a rolling pin until it forms a 10-inch circle.
- Wrap the remaining half of the dough tightly in plastic wrap and reserve it in the refrigerator for future use for up to 5 days.
- Fold the circle in half, place it in a 9-inch pie plate so that the edges of the circle drop over the rim, and unfold the dough to completely cover the pie plate.
- Using your thumb and index finger, crimp the edges of the pie shell.
- Brush the edges of the pie shell with heavy cream to create a perfect, golden brown finish.
- Set the pie shell to the side while you make the filling.
- To prepare the filling, in a small bowl, whisk together the sugar and cinnamon.
- Place the mangoes and pineapple in a large bowl and toss them with the sugar mixture, making sure that all of the fruit is thoroughly coated.
- Place the pineapple-mango mixture in the pie shell, distributing it evenly.
- Dot the filling with the butter.
- Sprinkle the macadamia-coconut crumb topping over the filling, covering it completely.
- To bake, place the pie plate on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to 350F and continue baking for approximately 45 minutes, or until the crust achieves a nice shade of golden brown.
- Transfer the pie plate to a wire cooling rack and allow the pie to cool and set for 1 1/2 hours before serving.
- Pineapple-Mango Pie with Macadamia-Coconut Crumb is best served either at room temperature or warmed at 350F for about 10 minutes.
- It will keep at room temperature overnight and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Pineapple pies should not be baked in a glass or ceramic pie plate due to their excess juices, which will impede the baking process.
- The bottom crust of pineapple pies will bake best when cooked in a disposable or metal pie plate, which allows the crust to brown properly.
