Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, combine the flour and powdered sugar.
- Add the chilled, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the egg yolk and 1 tbsp of cold water to the mixture. Stir until the dough begins to come together. If the dough is too dry, add an additional teaspoon of cold water, one at a time.
- Gather the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to fit into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Press the dough into the pan and trim any excess dough. Prick the bottom with a fork multiple times to prevent puffing.
- Line the crust with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the parchment and weights and bake for another 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the 5 eggs until well combined.
- Add the passion fruit pulp, lime zest, lime juice, granulated sugar, and coconut milk to the eggs. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and no sugar granules remain.
- Pour the filling into the pre-baked tart crust.
- Bake the tart in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes or until the filling is set with a slight wobble in the center.
- Remove the tart from the oven and allow it to cool completely at room temperature. Once cool, refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
- Optionally, garnish with additional lime zest, a dusting of powdered sugar, or some fresh passion fruit pulp before slicing and serving.
Tips:
- Ensure your butter is cold to achieve a flaky crust.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out to prevent it from shrinking while baking.
- Use fresh passionfruit and lime juice for the best flavor; however, bottled juice can be used in a pinch.
- Strain the passionfruit pulp to remove the seeds if you prefer a smoother texture.
- Blind-bake the crust by placing a sheet of parchment paper over it and filling it with pie weights or dried beans to keep it flat and even.
- Allow the tart to cool completely before slicing to ensure the filling is set properly.
- For an extra decorative touch, garnish the tart with thin lime slices or a sprinkle of lime zest before serving.
