Passion Fruit Butter (Stove or Slow Cooker)
Report
Made from just one ingredient, passionfruit, this is a truly TANGY fruit butter for those of you who love that sour sensation. The seeds also add a lovely crunch.

Ingredients
- ¾ lb passion fruit pulp or puree (350 g; see Note 1)
- ½ to 1 cup sugar (100–200 g *optional; see Note 2)
Instructions
- Add passion fruit puree to a small saucepan on a stove set to the lowest heat setting (see Notes for slow cooker option).
- Leave on low heat, uncovered, for 1–1 1⁄2 hours. Stir occasionally with a wooden spoon or spatula, then for the last half hour start stirring more often, every few minutes or so, to make sure nothing sticks or burns. (This depends on your stove. If it runs hotter you should check on it more frequently.)
- If using sugar (optional), stir it in towards the last half hour of cooking.
Notes
- I recommend using frozen passion fruit cubes for the most convenient and cheapest option, but you can also use fresh passion fruit.
- Without sugar, passion fruit butter is very sour, but tastes so good and fresh on things like toast, scones, and also in baked goods when you want to add a tart flavour. If you prefer a more mellow taste closer to a typical jam, please add some sweetener.
- This recipe can also be done in a slow cooker or Instant Pot! Just follow the instructions in my Rhubarb Butter recipe, but start checking and stirring occasionally at 2 hours into the slow cook instead of 6.
- This recipe can be doubled or even tripled, but the cooking time will also lengthen, so use the pictures below as a guide for when the passion fruit butter is thickened enough. I wouldn't recommend starting with less than half a pound of pulp, because you will end up with a truly tiny amount of butter and is it even worth the dishes at that point? (For reference, 3⁄4 lb of passion fruit puree turned into just 130 g—a little more than 1⁄4 lb—of passion fruit butter. A little goes a long way, though. Because of how acidic it is, you only need a very thin layer for spreading on things.)
