How to Make Peach Mango Pie
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Add in the chilled butter and vegetable shortening, cutting them into the flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal.
- Add the apple cider vinegar and ice water. Stir gently until the dough almost comes together.
- Turn the mixture out onto a floured board and knead until it comes together. Form it into a ball, flatten into a disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for about 2 hours or overnight.
- In a medium saucepan, combine mangoes, peaches, sugar, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat until boiling, stirring constantly until the fruits soften and the mixture becomes a thick gel. Let it cool for a bit.
- Allow the dough to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes. Then, roll it out on a floured board to 1/4 inch thickness. Use a 3.5-inch cookie cutter to cut circles.
- Place about a tablespoon of the fruit filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over and seal the edges.
- Arrange the filled pies on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill in the fridge while you prepare the oil.
- Fill a heavy-bottomed saucepan with shortening and heat it to 365°F over medium heat.
- Gently place 3-4 pies into the hot oil. Fry them until they turn lightly golden, about 2-3 minutes. Drain on paper towels and repeat with the remaining pies.
- Dust warm pies with powdered sugar and serve them right away for a delicious treat.

Notes
Chill your butter and shortening for a flaky crust. Let the fruit filling cool before adding it to the pies to prevent sogginess.
