Instructions
-
Start boiling water in a saucepan over medium heat, placing a heatproof bowl over it to create a double boiler without the bowl touching the water.
-
Reduce heat to medium-low, then add butter and sugar to the bowl and stir to melt.
-
Combine passionfruit pulp, lemon juice, and eggs in a separate bowl, then add this mixture to the butter and sugar.
-
Continuously stir the mixture over medium-low heat for 10 to 20 minutes until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
-
Remove the bowl from heat and allow the passionfruit butter to cool completely before spooning it into a sterilized airtight jar for refrigeration.
