Ingredients
Scale
Pie Crust
- 1 9-inch graham cracker pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
Filling
- 2 cups fresh mango puree (from about 3 large ripe mangos)
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Toppings (Optional)
- Whipped cream
- Diced fresh mango for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the pie.
- Mix Filling: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the fresh mango puree, sweetened condensed milk, sour cream, fresh lime juice, lime zest, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Fill the Crust: Pour the mango filling into the 9-inch graham cracker crust and smooth the top evenly with a spatula for an even bake.
- Bake: Place the pie in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center to retain creaminess.
- Cool Pie: Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes. This helps to set the filling gradually.
- Chill: Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until fully chilled and firm, which enhances the flavors and texture.
- Serve: Before serving, optionally top with whipped cream and garnish with diced fresh mango for added freshness and appeal.
Notes
- If fresh mangoes aren’t available, use frozen mango chunks (thawed) or canned mango pulp, ensuring it’s unsweetened to control the sweetness and flavor.
- This mango pie can also be enjoyed frozen and slightly thawed, making it a perfect chilled summer treat.
- Make sure to use ripe mangoes for the best natural sweetness and vibrant flavor in the filling.
- For a crust variation, you can substitute the graham cracker base with a digestive biscuit crust or a gluten-free alternative if desired.
