Ingredients

Scale

Pie Crust

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour (This forms the foundation of your pie, providing a flaky texture.)
  • 1 tsp salt (A must for balancing sweetness and enhancing flavor.)
  • 2 tbsp sugar (Just a touch to compliment the pie crust’s sweetness.)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (Offers rich flavor; make sure it’s chilled for the best results.)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable shortening (Keeps the crust tender and flaky; always chill before using.)
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar (Helps achieve a tender crust and adds a bit of tang.)
  • 67 tbsp ice water (Use this to bring the dough together without warming it up.)

Filling

  • 2 cups cubed mangoes (Fresh mangoes bring that sweet tropical flavor which is key to this Peach Mango Pie.)
  • 2 cups cubed peaches (Ripe peaches provide juiciness and a pop of color in the filling.)
  • 1/2 cup sugar (Sweetens the fruit filling; adjust based on the fruit’s natural sweetness.)
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch (Acts as a thickener, ensuring your filling isn’t runny after baking.)

For Frying and Finishing

  • 1 to 1 and 1/2 cups shortening (This creates a beautifully crispy crust when frying.)
  • Powdered sugar (Perfect for a light and sweet finish; sprinkle it generously before serving.)

Instructions

  1. How to Make Peach Mango Pie
    In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Add in the chilled butter and vegetable shortening, cutting them into the flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal.
  2. Add Liquids and Form Dough
    Add the apple cider vinegar and ice water. Stir gently until the dough almost comes together.
  3. Knead and Chill Dough
    Turn the mixture out onto a floured board and knead until it comes together. Form it into a ball, flatten into a disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for about 2 hours or overnight.
  4. Prepare Fruit Filling
    In a medium saucepan, combine mangoes, peaches, sugar, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat until boiling, stirring constantly until the fruits soften and the mixture becomes a thick gel. Let it cool for a bit.
  5. Roll and Cut Dough
    Allow the dough to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes. Then, roll it out on a floured board to 1/4 inch thickness. Use a 3.5-inch cookie cutter to cut circles.
  6. Fill and Seal Pies
    Place about a tablespoon of the fruit filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over and seal the edges.
  7. Chill Filled Pies
    Arrange the filled pies on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill in the fridge while you prepare the oil.
  8. Heat Shortening
    Fill a heavy-bottomed saucepan with shortening and heat it to 365°F over medium heat.
  9. Fry Pies
    Gently place 3-4 pies into the hot oil. Fry them until they turn lightly golden, about 2-3 minutes. Drain on paper towels and repeat with the remaining pies.
  10. Serve
    Dust warm pies with powdered sugar and serve them right away for a delicious treat.

Notes

  • Make sure butter and shortening are chilled before cutting into the flour mixture for the best crust texture.
  • Refrigerate dough for at least 2 hours or overnight to allow it to chill properly before rolling out.
  • Cook fruit filling until thickened to avoid runny pies.
  • Chill pies after filling and before frying to help maintain shape and improve texture.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan and monitor oil temperature carefully for perfect frying.
  • Serve pies warm with a dusting of powdered sugar for a sweet finish.
