Treacle tart

Date: April 6, 2007

From the kitchen of Sheelagh Ernst - Germany

Origin: The Dairy Book of Home Cooking. I bought this from our fresh milkman years ago while I was still at college :-)

Pastry crust for 9-inch plate or tin
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

Line plate or tin with pastry. Mix bread crumbs with other ingredients. Spread over pastry, leaving a 1-inch edge, if using a plate. , Moisten edges with cold good 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.

Serve with fresh cream, sour cream, natural yogurt or custard.

Serves 4.
