How to Make Mango Meringue Pie

Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
Make the crust: In a food processor, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted margarine. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add ¼ cup mango nectar, pulsing until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer it to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
Lightly coat the pie plate with cooking spray. Using a rolling pin to help lift, transfer the pastry into the pie plate. Prick the bottom with a fork. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
Make the filling: In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup mango nectar, ½ cup granulated sugar, and ¼ cup custard powder. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a boil. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Make the meringue: In a clean, dry medium bowl, beat 3 large egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add ¾ cup granulated sugar, beating until stiff, glossy peaks form.
Assemble the pie: Spread thinly sliced fresh mangoes evenly over the baked pie crust. Pour the cooled mango custard filling over the mangoes.
Top with the meringue, spreading it evenly to the edges of the crust. Use a knife to create peaks if desired.
Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the meringue is lightly browned and the filling is set.
