Ingredients
  

  • 1 recipe Almond, Date, and Coconut Pie Crust
  • 1 cup (250 mL) dried mango, soaked in water for 10 minutes
  • 3 cups (750 mL) chopped fresh mango, about 2 mangos
  • 2 tablespoons (30 mL / 1 fl oz) melted virgin coconut oil or 2 teaspoons / 10 mL (0.3 fl oz) guar gum (optional)
  • 1 cup (250 mL) sliced strawberries, for garnish
  • For cleaner, firmer slices, don't skip the optional coconut oil or guar gum. It acts as a natural stabilizer and helps the filling set beautifully.
  • Use ripe, sweet mangos for the best flavor. Ataulfo or Honey mangos are excellent choices as they are less fibrous and have a rich, creamy texture.
  • Get creative with your garnish! Sliced kiwi, passion fruit pulp, or a sprinkle of toasted shredded coconut are fantastic alternatives to strawberries.

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Almond, Date, and Coconut Pie Crust and press it firmly into an 8- or 9-inch (20 or 23 cm) pie plate.
  2. Set aside.
  3. Drain the soaked dried mango well, pressing it in a small sieve or with your hands to remove all excess liquid.
  4. Place the drained dried mango, fresh chopped mango, and optional coconut oil or guar gum into a high-speed blender or food processor.
  5. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
  6. Pour the mango filling over the prepared pie crust and use a spatula to spread it into an even layer.
  7. Artfully arrange the sliced strawberries on top for a beautiful garnish.
  8. Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 to 3 hours to allow the filling to set and firm up.
  9. Serve chilled to ensure the slices hold their shape perfectly.
  10. Don't discard the mango soaking water! It's packed with flavor and makes a delicious, sweet base for your next smoothie or oatmeal.
