Ingredients
Scale
Pie Filling:
- 0.75 cup mangoes, cubed
- 0.75 cup peaches, cubed
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
Thickening and Flavor Enhancers:
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
Pastry and Binding Ingredients:
- 2 pie crusts
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- Flour (for dusting)
Instructions
- Prepare the fruity filling by combining diced mangoes and peaches with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, salt, and cinnamon in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
- Stir the mixture occasionally, allowing it to reach a boiling point, then reduce heat and simmer until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.
- Remove the filling from heat, gently fold in vanilla extract, and set aside to cool slightly and develop deeper flavors.
- Warm the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Sprinkle flour on a clean work surface and carefully roll out the pie crust, using a 3.5-inch cookie cutter to create uniform rounds.
- Spoon a generous dollop of the cooled peach-mango mixture into the center of half of the pie crust rounds.
- Create an egg wash by whisking heavy cream and egg, then delicately brush the edges of each filled crust round.
- Carefully place the remaining pie crust rounds on top, gently pressing and crimping edges to create a tight seal.
- Using a sharp knife, slice small vent openings on the top of each mini pie to allow steam to escape.
- Generously brush the tops with additional egg wash to ensure a golden, glossy finish.
- Transfer the prepared pies to the prepared baking sheet and bake until they transform into a rich, golden-brown color.
- Allow the pies to rest on the baking sheet for a short period, then transfer to a cooling rack to complete their setting process.
Notes
- Choose ripe, sweet mangoes and peaches for the most vibrant flavor explosion in your pie filling.
- Adjust sugar levels based on the natural sweetness of your fruits to prevent overly sugary or bland results.
- Ensure pie crust edges are tightly sealed to prevent filling from leaking during baking.
- Experiment with adding a pinch of ground ginger or nutmeg for an extra flavor dimension that complements the tropical fruits.
