Where to find ingredients
You can find passion fruit, margarine, and flour at major Kenyan supermarkets like Naivas or Carrefour. Fresh passion fruit is best sourced from local greengrocers or the 'fresh produce' section of markets for the most intense flavor. Use frozen juice as a substitute if fresh fruit is unavailable.
Preparation method
- Preheat your oven to the required temperature.
- Grease your preferred baking tin thoroughly.
- In a blender, combine the eggs, margarine, sugar, passion fruit juice, water, and all-purpose flour.
- Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and well-incorporated.
- Fold in the baking powder gently using a spatula or a spoon.
- Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking tin.
- Bake for 40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
