Roll larger pancake into a circle to fit a 9-inch pie plate. Fold dough into quarters and unfold and press into pie plate.

For the First Layer: Combine almonds, maple syrup and brown sugar in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir gently until mixture comes to a full boil. Boil 1 minute. Turn out onto waxed paper and cool.

For Topping: Beat salt and egg whites in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Add marshmallow cream gradually. Beat until stiff peaks form.

Assemble the Pie: Remove pie crust from refrigerator. Crumble first layer and sprinkle over bottom of prepared crust evenly. Gently pour second layer over first layer. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes.

Increase oven to 375 degrees F. Spread topping over filling, covering completely and sealing to edge of pie. Bake at 375 degrees F for 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned. Sprinkle with additional toasted coconut and serve. Store leftovers covered in refrigerator.
