Triple Layer Orange Passionfruit Tart


Recently, I had a hankering for my Mum's Triple Layer Orange Passionfruit Tart recently, and coincidentally had all of the ingredients in the house.  This was  a great excuse to whip one up.

The recipe is published in the Blogger Aid Cookbook (2009) - you can buy one here.

While this tart is a little fiddly, as it has four components (pie dough, passionfruit filling, orange custard, and white custard topping), it is well worth the effort, and none of the components is hard to make:


It always amazes me how the passionfruit layer sets up with just lemon juice - you start off with something really runny, but it just comes together like magic. 


This tart is a marvel.  I recommend buying the Blogger Aid Cookbook for this and a host of fabulous recipes from bloggers around the world - and you will be doing your bit to raise funds for the World Food Program's School Meals Program.

That is one nice looking tart, Gaye. You know, I have never had Passionfruit before. I really need to give it a try. I always hear so many wonderful things about it.

I better pin this lovely tart for the day I finally try it. I may just have a "hankering" myself:)

Thank you so much for sharing...

I love the flavor of passionfruit, but can't find it here in any form (jam, syrup, frozen fruit pulp, flavoring...) so I have to wait for my next trip to Hawaii to have some. Last time there were really wonderful passionfruit tarts, jams, and beverages where I ate there.

So good idea, too bad for me!
