1 | cup all-purpose flour |
10 | tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into chunks |
1 | cup powdered sugar |
1 | teaspoon salt |

Instructions
-
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease a 9-inch pie dish with a removable bottom.
- For the crust, toast the sweetened shredded coconut in the oven until lightly brown. Allow it to cool completely.
- Using a food processor, combine the toasted coconut, all-purpose flour, cold unsalted butter, powdered sugar, and salt until the mixture forms a ball of dough.
- Press the dough firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the pie dish.
- Freeze the crust for 10 minutes, then bake for 20 minutes. Cool the crust completely on a wire rack.
- To make the filling, blend the mango puree, sugar, and lime juice until smooth.
- Sprinkle the powdered gelatine over 1/2 cup of mango mixture in a microwavable container. Microwave for 15 seconds, then stir until the gelatine dissolves.
- Incorporate the gelatine mixture into the rest of the mango mixture and let it sit in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent it from setting.
- In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to whip 1/2 cup of whipping cream until it forms firm peaks. Fold in the mango mixture.
- Remove the cooled pie crust from the pan. Pour the cream mixture in and smooth the top using a spatula.
- Refrigerate the tart until set, for about 3 hours or ideally overnight.
- Before serving, whip the remaining whipping cream until firm. Top the tart with the whipped cream and sprinkle with lime zest.
