Ingredients

• 1 cup macadamia nuts
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 0.25 cup granulated sugar
• 2 cups coconut milk (full-fat)
• 1 cup coconut cream
• 0.5 cup cornstarch
• 0.5 cup water
• 0.75 cup sugar (for haupia filling)
• 1 cup lilikoi (passion fruit) puree
• 0.5 cup sugar (for lilikoi glaze)
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch (for lilikoi glaze)
• 0.25 cup water (for lilikoi glaze)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Prepare the crust: In a food processor, pulse the macadamia nuts until finely ground but not pasty. Add the flour, butter, and sugar, and pulse until a crumbly dough forms.

Step 3

Press the dough into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan, ensuring it’s evenly spread and compact. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.

Step 4

Make the haupia layer: In a medium saucepan, whisk together the coconut milk, coconut cream, sugar, and water. Gradually whisk in the cornstarch until fully dissolved.

Step 5

Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and reaches a pudding-like consistency (about 7-10 minutes).

Step 6

Pour the haupia filling over the cooled crust, smoothing the surface with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.

Step 7

Prepare the lilikoi glaze: In a small saucepan, whisk together the lilikoi puree, sugar, cornstarch, and water until smooth.

Step 8

Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened and glossy (about 5 minutes).

Step 9

Allow the glaze to cool slightly, then pour it over the chilled haupia layer, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for another hour to set the glaze.

Step 10

Slice and serve the pie chilled. Enjoy the tropical flavors of coconut and passion fruit!
