Where to find ingredients
Eggs, sugar, flour, and baking powder are staples easily found in any local grocery shop or market. For the margarine, look for a standard baking or table margarine in the dairy aisle. Fresh passion fruit can often be found at local fruit stalls or markets; look for the ones with slightly wrinkled skins as they are usually riper and have more juice. If fresh passion fruit is unavailable, you can check the freezer section of supermarkets for frozen passion fruit pulp (look for 100% natural pulp) or browse the aisles with imported Latin American products for bottled passion fruit nectar or juice.
Preparation method
- Start by preheating your oven
- Grease a baking tin of your choice
- Add the eggs, margarine, sugar, passion fruit juice, water, and flour into a blender
- Blend everything well until the batter is smooth and well-combined
