Instruções

• Note: For the best results, I'd recommend using a scale to weigh your ingredients rather than using cups. Adding too much dry or wet ingredients to this cake will make the cake overly dry or moist.

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a 20 cm (8 inches) or larger loaf tin with baking paper. The larger your tin, the shorter amount of time it'll take to bake the passionfruit cake.

💗To make the cake:

1. Add all dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl. Mix until combined and there are no lumps.

2. Add all wet ingredients including the passionfruit pulp to the bowl and mix until just combined. The batter should be thick. Some lumps are fine, as long as they aren't lumps of flour. Overmixing the batter will result in an unpleasant cake.

3. Pour the cake batter into the lined baking tin.

4. Bake the cake for around 50 minutes or until a skewer can be inserted into the cake and it comes out clean.

💗To make the icing:

1. Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix until combined. Add more powdered sugar for a firmer frosting or more passionfruit pulp for a runnier frosting

2. When the cake has fully cooled, spread the icing on top of the cake allowing it to drip down the sides.

3. The cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 day or in the fridge for 3 days.
