Months ago, my boyfriend commented how a mango pie would probably be really good. So, for his birthday, I made him this recipe. It was a good pie, but I'm giving it four stars only because it was just what we expected. It was a pie just like your average apple or peach pie that happened to taste like Mangoes. It was good and everyone enjoyed it, but it's nothing exotic. I would definitely make it again though because 1) it was tastey and 2) the crowd really loved it because they'd never had a mango pie. The green mangoes were really easy to fine ($1.09 a piece in California) and 8 of them filled it way up, which is what I like. I made homemade crust because I think it's better and cut a petal design on the top. Great with vanilla ice cream! Oh, make sure to put a cookie sheet under this one- juices spilled all over my oven!
