Passionfruit Slice is afternoon tea perfection – made with a beautiful cake-like base and topped with a deliciously creamy passionfruit layer.
Welcome to our Fabulous Foodie Fridays party! It’s so lovely to have you here. Like all good parties, our FFF parties are filled with plenty of delicious food. So go grab a cup of coffee (or champas!) and be inspired by this weeks yumminess.
I know that usually I’m a sweet-loving girl, but last week there were so many amazing savoury recipes that I just couldn’t go past. First up is this delicious Roast Pumpkin and Haloumi Salad from Lime and Mortar. During summer it’s all about yummy and light salads, so this is perfect. 
If you’re planning an Australia Day party, why not whip up a batch of Chicken and Veggie Sausage Rolls from Simplify Create Inspire! 
Boiled Eggs and Soldiers linked up one of my favourite salads – a BLT! To make it into a filling dinner, I also like to add a little avocado and chicken. Yum! 
Mmm a bowl of creamy gnocchi is just too good to ignore! Loving this very simple recipe from House in Tillford. 
Finally, I couldn’t end my favourites without a little bit of sweetness. I am LOVING this Toblerone Cheesecake from my baking partner in crime, Lauren from Create Bake Make. This is all kinds of awesome! 
Don’t forget to pop over and check out Lauren’s favourites too. Now for my feature recipe this week, I thought I’d share a classic slice recipe. Yep, you know I love my slices!
Passionfruit Slice Recipe
Passionfruit Slice has the yummiest cake-like base and is topped with a beautifully creamy and tangy passionfruit layer. In other words, it’s seriously good stuff! 
To make this slice you simply whip up the base and pop it into the oven to cook until golden. Next you mix up the passionfruit layer and pour it over the base before popping it back into the oven. Cook until the top has set. 
Leave the slice to cool completely before cutting into slices. This is by far the hardest step of the whole slice making process!! It smells so good and you’ll just want to cut into it straight away, but hold off!! If you leave the slice for that little bit longer, it will be much easier to cut into slices (I promise!). 
My favourite thing about this Passionfruit Slice is that is tastes even better the next day. The flavours sort of smoosh (is that a word?) together and the base becomes beautifully moist from the passionfruit top layer. This is afternoon tea perfection. Seriously. Perfection I tell you!

Thanks for the feature lovely! It really is a great salad… who can go past haloumi!
No problem at all. Thanks for linking up! (PS – I’m loving your microwave brownie recipe this week!).
That passion fruit slice is making me salivate! Looks exactly like something my dear Nanna used to make. I just spent a few minutes sitting here staring at it trying to think of how I could make it gluten and dairy free 🙂
Oh yes you definitely could make a few adjustments to suit any allergies. 🙂
Hey Lucy this looks really good, and probably one of the first slices of yours that isn’t quite so high in butter 😛 I was wondering though if you think you could make the base using oil instead of melted butter – it’s that whole no dairy issue of mine and I’m not a huge fan of the non-dairy margarines in cooking. Of course I’d have to do a different topping too, but there are ways…
Haha Glenda – how right you are! I think you definitely could use oil (why not try coconut oil?). It would have a different texture but I think it would still be very yummy!
Thanks so much for the feature lovely x
I definitely need to make your passionfruit slice. Yum!
My pleasure 🙂
