Ingredients

Base

  • 1 cup self raising flour
  • 130 g caster sugar (2/3 cup)
  • 180 g melted butter
  • 180 g dessicated coconut (3/4 cup)

Filling

  • 550 g sweetened condensed milk (or 1 x 375g + 1 x 170g tins will do)
  • 5 tbsp lemon juice
  • 4 tbsp passionfruit pulp (tinned or fresh. If tinned, these days it has a lot of liquid, just do the best you can and try get good amount of seeds )
  • 1 tsp lemon zest

Instructions

  • Lightly grease and lIne 30 x 20 cm (11" x 8") baking tray with baking paper. Tray can be slightly smaller. Preheat oven to 180℃/356℉.

Base

  • Sift flour into bowl. Add sugar, coconut and melted butter. Mix until it comes together.
  • Press dough into the prepared tray, smoothing down and ensuring it gets into the corners with the back of a spoon. This size baking tray will give you a little lip at the edge. Bake for approximately 12 minutes. Remove from oven. Turn oven down to 160℃/320℉.

Filling

  • While base cools slightly, prepare filling by mixing condensed milk, lemon juice, passionfruit and zest. Pour into base and smooth with spatula. (An alternative is to put the milk, juice and zest into the base, then add the passionfruit and use a knife to swirl it through the mix.)
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven. Leave to cool for at least 30 minutes before removing from tin. Best to cool completely before slicing. Store in fridge.
