Passionfruit Souffle

It takes very few ingredients to make this fabulous passionfruit souflle.

This is a wonderfully light, airy dessert flavoured beautifully by passionfruit pulp.  Served warm from the oven, sprinkled with icing sugar and served with icecream, whipped cream and/or a passionfruit coulis and you have a truly ‘to die for’ dessert.

I have best results making souffles when I use eggs at room temperature.  So when making these souffles, if at all possible, store your eggs overnight out of the fridge to allow them to warm a little.
