Ingredients

Scale
  • 500 g guavas (chopped and peeled)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). In a food processor, crush the Tennis biscuits until fine. Combine with melted butter and mix well.

  4. Pour the filling over the cooled crust and bake for approximately 50 minutes, until edges are set but center jiggles slightly.
  5. Allow cooling at room temperature before chilling in the refrigerator for at least four hours or overnight.
  6. While chilling, prepare guava compote by simmering chopped guavas, sugar, and lime juice until thickened.
  7. Serve slices topped with guava compote and enjoy!
