FRANGIPANI PIE

Frangipani Pie image

An Aussie version of Pineapple Cream Pie, this beautiful dessert pays tribute to the gorgeously aromatic white-&-gold tropical frangipani flower. I love coconut, so I've jazzed up this Golden Circle recipe with coconut milk and shredded coconut...mmmm! I use a simple biscuit crumb crust, but any favourite pastry shell will do. The time for the preparation of the shell is not included.

Tips:

Use ripe fruit: The riper the fruit, the sweeter and more flavorful your jam will be.
Prepare your fruit: Wash and hull your fruit before cooking. You may also need to peel or core it, depending on the fruit.
Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to prevent your jam from scorching.
Stir your jam frequently: This will help to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
Test your jam for doneness: After cooking for the specified time, remove a small amount of jam from the pot and place it on a cold plate. Let it cool for a few minutes, then push your finger through it. If the jam wrinkles, it is done.

Conclusion:

With a little planning and effort, you can easily make delicious Golden Circle jam at home. These recipes are a great place to start, but feel free to experiment with different fruits and flavors. Once you get the hang of it, you'll be able to create your own unique jams that your family and friends will love. So what are you waiting for? Start jamming today!
