procrastibaking take two: passion fruit tart

so the second of the procrastibaking extravaganzas was the passion fruit tart from john whaite bakes which is an absolutely gorgeous book and one I would thoroughly recommend to anyone.

this recipe jumped out as another simple one in terms of ingredients (especially as Tesco has a deal on passion fruit at the time) and was another summery recipe to chase away the revision blues.

the pastry recipe was pretty much the same as the previous one, although this was a little more difficult to handle. getting it into the tin is always a bit of a challenge!

the best part of this recipe was getting to try passion fruit for the first time. I couldn't believe I hadn't had them before as they are so scrummy! it was hard to restrict myself to the one spare and not gobble up the whole lot!

such an interesting fruit

the fruit are scooped and sieved so that the juice remains.



the fillings were also very similar and this was also best put into the tart case when it was already on the oven shelf.

the results of this tart were absolutely stunning, it's amazing to get such a vibrant yellow colour from all natural products! and the taste certainly lived up to the visual promise.

the tart is finished with the pulp of the two remaining fruit (which was useful for hiding the crack!)

this was a really tasty tart which I hope to make again over the summer as it is the perfect accompaniment for an afternoon tea or as something sweet to finish off a BBQ.

and I hope this shows how easy and satisfying it is to make your own pastry and turn it into a scrumptious tart!

love,
