Tips:

  • Use fresh mandarins: Fresh mandarins have the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh mandarins, you can use canned mandarins, but be sure to drain them well before using.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the mandarins: A sharp knife will help you to get clean, even slices of mandarin oranges.
  • Don't overcook the mandarin filling: The mandarin filling should be cooked until it is just heated through. Overcooking the filling will make it tough and rubbery.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
  • Serve the pie with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream: This will add a delicious and creamy touch to the pie.

Conclusion:

Mandarin pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet and tart mandarins, creamy filling, and flaky crust is sure to please everyone. Follow these tips to make the best mandarin pie possible.
