No Photo

Ingredients

  • Pastry crust for 9 inch plate
  • 2 level tablespoons fresh white bread crumbs
  • 2 level tablespoons black treacle
  • 1 level tablespoon golden syrup or 3 level tablespoons golden syrup if omitting the black treacle
  • 1/2 level teaspoon finely grated lemon rind
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Line plate or tin with pastry.
  2. Mix bread crumbs with other ingredients. Spread over pastry, leaving a 1-inch edge, if using a plate. Moisten edges with cold water and arrange remaining pastry in thin strips to make a criss-cross design. Press firmly to edges and bake in the centre of a moderate oven (200 degrees C, 400 degrees F or Gas No. 6) for 30 minutes or until pastry is golden.
  3. Serve with fresh cream, sour cream, natural yogurt or custard.

Notes

The most common brand of golden syrup is Lyle's. If you cannot find it, use white Karo syrup as a substitute.
