Tangy pie produced by North African (8)
I believe the answer is:
egyptian
'north african' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'tangy pie produced' is the wordplay.
'produced' indicates an anagram.
'tangy'+'pie'='tangypie'
'tangypie' anagrammed gives 'EGYPTIAN'.
'by' is the link.
(Other definitions for egyptian that I've seen before include "New African democrat" , "ancient language" , "tongue, once" , "Strange tiny page for the nationality" , "from the Middle East" .)
