Mango Plantain Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 very ripe black plantains, peeled
    1/2 cup white sugar
    1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1 drop red food coloring, or as needed
    1 teaspoon all-purpose flour, or as needed
    1 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crust
    1 mango, sliced
    1 pinch white sugar, or to taste
Preparation
    Place plantains in a pot with water to cover. Bring to a boil; cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, transfer to a bowl, and mash until smooth. Add 1/2 cup white sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and red food coloring.
    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Flour a pie plate; line the plate with the pie crust.
    Pour the plantain mixture into the pie crust. Arrange sliced mangos on top and sprinkle with a pinch of sugar.
    Bake in the preheated oven until mostly firm, about 30 minutes.
