Mango Pie Recipe

When Hrishikesh Hirway was a kid, his parents, who immigrated to the United States from Maharashtra, in western India, began hosting Thanksgiving. The meal soon evolved into a hybrid of a traditional Thanksgiving and an Indian potluck. “Out of that cultural mash-up, my mom started making this mango pie,” he said. She’d gotten the idea from other Indian aunties in the States, but their versions weren’t as good. “They weren’t making it with the best kind of mango,” Hirway explained. “The Alphonsos have a stronger, more intense flavor.” That Alphonso flavor shines as brilliantly as the pie’s bright filling, made tangy and rich with the addition of cream cheese and whipped cream. And the salty, crumbly graham cracker crust is the perfect foundation for the golden cloud of custard that sits atop it. It’s so satisfying that youll catch yourself cutting sliver after mouthwatering sliver of pie. —Samin Nosrat

Serving Size: 1

Ingredients:

  • For the crust:
  • 10 graham crackers (150 grams) (10 x 2-inch size crackers) or British digestive biscuits
  • -or- 1 store bought 9-inch/23-cm Graham cracker crust
  • 5 tablespoons (64 grams) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • For the filling:
  • 4 cups (453 grams) fresh mango puree *see note
  • 1 ¼ (14 ounces/396 grams) sweetened condensed milk
  • 5 large egg yolks, room temperature
  • ¼ teaspoon orange zest

Instruction:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F/177°C.
  2. To make the crust (if using prepared crust, skip this step):
  3. Add the crackers or biscuits and sugar to a food processor. Pulse until they are finely crumbled. With the processor running, drizzle in the melted butter until evenly coated with butter. If you don’t have a food processor, add the crackers and sugar to a large ziptop bag and crush them with a pan or rolling pin. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add the melted butter. Mix well.
  4. Place a 9-inch (23 cm) removable bottomed, fluted tart pan on a baking sheet (this will help easily clean up any stray crumbs and make the tart easy to move in and out of the oven). Spread the crumbs evenly in the pan, then use a small flat bottomed cup or bowl to press the crust as firmly as you can into an even layer on the bottom and up the sides. Bake for 10 minutes, remove and allow to cool. Keep the oven on.
  5. To make the filling:Add the mango to a blender (or Nutribullet) and blend until you get a smooth puree. A food processor will not make the puree smooth. To a mixing bowl add the purred mango, sweetened condensed milk, egg yolks and orange zest, whisk well to combine. Pour over the cooled crust and spread into an even layer.
  6. Bake for 18-22 minutes, until the top is set. If you shake the pan slightly, it will jiggle a little in the center, that is fine. Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack for 2 hours. Once cooled, refrigerate for 3-4 hours.
