Tis the season ya’ll – feijoas are back and when you are blessed with a feijoa tree you don’t just get one or two do you? You get ALL the feijoas, so having multiple recipes up your sleeve is never a bad idea. I make this loaf multiple times each year, we love it in all of its sugary glory, but, it works just as well with a stevia natural sweetener. Yay for reduced calories!

Yum this looks so good! I love feijoas. I've got 4 trees that I planted a few years ago, but they're just not quite ripe yet! Can't wait to get into them and try out recipes like this.
Ours are baby trees too about the same age, they have just gone mental this year with jumbo fruit!
Recipe states boil with water – how much water?
