Coconut Mango Cream Pie Recipes

MANGO PIE WITH COCONUT CRUST

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix flour and salt; cut in butter until crumbly. Gradually add ice water, tossing with a fork until dough holds together when pressed. Divide dough in half. Shape each into a disk; wrap in plastic. Refrigerate 30 minutes or overnight., Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, toss mangoes with rum. In a small bowl, mix sugar, tapioca, spices and salt. Gently stir into fruit mixture; let stand 15 minutes., Sprinkle the coconut on a lightly floured surface. Place one half of dough on coconut; roll dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle. Transfer to a 9-in. pie plate, coconut side down. Trim pastry even with rim. Add filling., Roll remaining dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; cut into 1/2-in.-wide strips. Arrange over filling in a lattice pattern. Trim and seal strips to edge of bottom pastry; flute edge., Bake 45-50 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cover edge loosely with foil during the last 15 minutes if needed to prevent overbrowning. Remove foil. Cool on a wire rack.

MANGO PIE

Steps:

• Stir crumbs, sugar, cardamom and salt together in a medium bowl. Add butter, and stir with a fork until evenly combined.
• Pour half the crumb mixture into a 9-inch round metal pie pan, and spread evenly. Press down with fingers, a metal measuring cup or a second pie pan to compact the crumbs as much as possible across the bottom and up the sides of the pan into an even crust. (The more compressed the crust, the less it will crumble.) Repeat to form the remaining crumb mixture into a crust in a second pan.
• Heat oven to 325. Transfer both crusts to freezer, and chill for 15 minutes. Bake until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Place 3/4 cup cold water in a large bowl. In a small bowl, stir together 1/4 cup sugar with the gelatin; sprinkle mixture evenly over the surface of the cold water. Let sit a few minutes to bloom.
• In the meantime, whip the cream and remaining 1/4 cup sugar together until medium-stiff peaks form. Set aside.
• In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, warm 1 cup of the mango purée to body temperature (stir to make sure you are just warming it and not bringing it to a boil). Pour warmed mango purée over gelatin mixture, and whisk until well combined. Gelatin should dissolve into mango completely. Gradually whisk in remaining mango purée.
• Use a rubber spatula to beat the cream cheese in a medium bowl until it is soft and smooth, then add to mango mixture along with a large pinch of sea salt. Use an immersion blender to blend until completely smooth, tipping the bowl to make sure you've incorporated everything well. Gently tap the bowl on the counter once or twice to pop any air bubbles. Use the spatula to gently fold about 1/4 of the mango mixture into the whipped cream, then fold cream into the larger amount of mixture until no streaks remain.
• Divide custard between cooled crusts. Use a rubber spatula to smooth out the filling. Refrigerate 5 hours or overnight until firm and chilled. Serve chilled.

MANGO AND COCONUT PIE

Steps:

• Bake prepared pie crust at 450' for 9-11 minutes or until lightly browned.
• Cool.
• Sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup mango juice and let stand to soften. In a food processor, combine 3/4 cup mango juice with 1 cup mango pieces and process until smooth. In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch and salt.
• Mix well. Stir in milk and pureed mango mixture. Cook over medium heat until mixture thickens and boils, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Blend a small amount of hot mixture into egg yolks. Then gradually stir into hot mixture and continue to cook over medium heat until it comes to a boil.
• Cook 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla, butter and gelatin mixture. Fold in 1/2 cup toasted coconut.
• Refrigerate about 30 minutes.
• Fold in other cup mango pieces. Spoon into cooled crust. Refrigerate about 45 minutes. Beat whipping cream until soft peaks form. Add 1 tablespoons sugar and vanilla and continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in mango jam. Pipe or spoon whipped cream over filling. Garnish with rest of coconut.
• Refrigerate 3-4 hours.

MANGO-COCONUT CREAM TART

Steps:

• Make the pate brisee: Pulse flour, salt, and granulated sugar in a food processor until combined. Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal, 8 to 10 seconds. Drizzle 1/4 cup ice water evenly over mixture. Pulse until mixture holds together when pressed between 2 fingers (dough should not be wet or sticky). If dough is too dry, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse. Shape dough into a disk, and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day. Let stand at room temperature 5 minutes before rolling.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Roll out pate brisee into a 15-inch round (1/8 inch thick) on a lightly floured surface. Fit dough into a 12 1/2-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom, pressing dough well into pan's edge. Trim edge flush with top rim of pan. Prick bottom all over with a fork. Freeze until hard, about 20 minutes. Line with parchment, pressing parchment deep into corners of pan so it is flush with dough and leaving a 3-inch overhang. Fold overhang over dough edge so it is not exposed. Fill with pie weights or dried beans, and bake until edge of shell begins to turn golden, about 30 minutes, rotating halfway through. Remove weights and parchment. Reduce temperature to 325 degrees. Tent edge with foil, and bake until golden brown, 25 to 27 minutes more. Let cool slightly, about 20 minutes.
• Make the filling: Mix together granulated and brown sugars, salt, and cornmeal. Whisk in eggs, yolk, and vanilla; then butter and coconut. Spread filling into tart shell. Bake until just set and lightly golden, 22 to 24 minutes. Let cool completely.
• Make the topping: Peel mangoes, and cut in half, removing pits. Brush with lemon juice. Very thinly slice each half crosswise. Beat together cream and confectioners' sugar until medium peaks form. Spread one-third of cream mixture over top of filling. Fill a pastry bag fitted with a large open star tip (such as Ateco #829) with remaining cream mixture, and pipe randomly spaced swirls of cream. Twist 3 to 5 mango slices at a time into spirals, and nestle between cream swirls. Heat corn syrup and water until combined. Brush mango spirals with syrup. Refrigerate tart until chilled, about 20 minutes and up to 4 hours.
