Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick spray.

Step 2

Place the flour, salt, and powdered sugar for the crust into a mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter, a fork, or your hands.

Step 3

Put the crust mixture into the baking pan. Press the dough into the bottom of the pan and up the sides as much as you can.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the oven for 15 minutes, until the edges are just starting to brown. Remove from the oven when done.

Step 5

While the crust is baking, whisk the eggs together in another mixing bowl. Add the sugar, one cup at a time, and fully combine. Add the flour and baking powder and continue to whisk. Finally, add the passion fruit puree and ensure everything is well combined.

Step 6

By now the crust should be done and out of the oven. Once the crust is ready, carefully pour the passion fruit mixture onto the hot crust and place the pan back into the oven for another 30-35 minutes. The bars are done when the center is firm.

Step 7

Remove the bars from the oven and allow the pan to cool on a wire rack until it can be placed in the fridge to cool and set. Allow the bars to chill for a minimum of 1 hour. Dust with powdered sugar right before serving and enjoy!
