Ingredients
For the base
- 200g ginger nut biscuits
- 80g unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tbsp caster sugar
For the filling
- 4 large egg yolks
- 100ml passion fruit juice, strained from 10-12 passion fruit, seeds reserved
- Zest and juice of 2 limes
- ¼ tsp salt
- 400g tin condensed milk
- 150ml double cream
Directions
- Preheat oven to 190°C (170°C fan) and line the base of a loose-bottomed 23cm cake tin with baking paper.
- For the base, crush the biscuits in a food bag (or use a food processor) until they are mostly fine. Put the crumbs in a large bowl, add the melted butter and sugar, and stir well to coat. Press the biscuit mix into the base of the lined tin, then bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges look lightly browned. Remove and leave to cool a little. Turn down the oven to 160C (140C fan)/325F/gas 3.
- For the filling, put the egg yolks, passion fruit juice, lime juice and zest, and salt in a bowl and mix to combine. Stir in the condensed milk and mix again until smooth. Pour the filling on to the biscuit base, then bake for 13-16 minutes, until the custard is set with a very slight wobble in the middle. Leave to cool completely, then chill for one to two hours.
- To make the topping, lightly whip the cream to soft peaks, then spoon dollops on to the tart. Top with some of the reserved passion fruit seeds, then slice and serve.
