Macadamia Coconut Pie Pastry

1 cup chopped unsalted macadamia
1/2 cup flaked unsweetened coconut
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 egg white

Prehat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Combine the nuts, coconut, and brown sugar in a medium-size bowl.

Beat the egg white until stiff, and gently fold it into the nut mixture.

Press the mixture evenly into an 8-inch pie plate, making sure the sides are thickish (the crust will shrink while baking). Bake until the crust is lightly browned, 7 minutes.

Remove the pie plate from the oven and let it cool on a rack. (The crust will tighten as it cools.)
