Sure looks like a passiflora. There are some 550 species. i wouldn’t try to tell you which that is. it’s probably edible when ripe.

If people ask for a plant ID I always recommend to add the location.

Passiflora edulis var flavicarpa (up to 4" fruit size) or the invasive Passiflora laurifolia (Water Lemon, up to 2" fruit size) comes to my mind...

seeing the leaves may help identify. I agree from the way the flower is on the fruit, some kind of passiflora.
