ISO recipes with Golden syrup

[LadyCook61]

I've seen Lyle's Golden Syrup but have not bought it yet , wondering if it is worth the purchase. I don't want to use it once or twice and it sits on the shelf for ages. I have googled for recipes especially at the Lyle's site. Just wondered if anyone here used the product.

Being raised on the stuff, best friends family was from England and I met her at 6 years old. It was a staple in her/their home. It's been in mine ever since and wouldn't be without it. I've posted several times on it's uses, but for me, mostly I love it on home made white sandwich bread with peanut butter. Again, raised on it that way. I don't care how long mine sits in the kitchen store, I enjoy just knowing it's there, with it's little sister, Treacle.

I just bought a jar of the golden syrup at Wegman's. I didn't see the Treacle there. The syrup is expensive , $4.99 , hubby was not happy about it. I told him I have to try it before I die and besides he would benefit too when I make things with it.

My husband (from England), likes golden syrup, though we don't buy it very often. I think he used it over cereal, but I think it would be good on pancakes, crepes, waffles. It reminds me of a sweet corn syrup.

We use it for many puddings - you could use it to make a syrup pudding. We also use it to flavour porridge instead of sugar. This our favourite recipe for British flapjacks (like a cake)

315g / 10oz Margarine
4 tbsp golden syrup
185g / 6oz demerara sugar
250g / 8oz oats
250g / 8oz self raising flour
250g / 8oz dried fruit



Method

1 Heat the oven to 190°C / 375 °F / Gas Mark 5. Grease the baking tin

2 Melt the margarine, syrup and sugar together in a saucepan. Allow to cool a little

3 Add the oats, self-raising flour and dried fruit.

4 Pour into the tray and bake for 20-25 minutes

LC, we used to have a lovely member of DC from Scotland, Ishbel. Do a search for her recipes - I think she used golden syrup in a lot of her baked goodies.

We use Golden Syrup for:

Treacle tarts
Over rice pudding (and then topped with Carnation milk - yummy!)
Anzac biscuits
Golden Syrup puddings
and I think you use it in a Sticky Date pudding but wouldn't swear to it

Here you are:​

Treacle Tart​

Ingredients:

225g plain flour
Pinch of salt
100g margarine
2-3 tablespoons of cold waiter

For the filling
8 tablespoons of golden syrup
2 teaspoons of grated lemon rind
50g fresh while bread crumbs


Method:

• Sift the flour and salt into a bowl.
• Cut the margarine into small pieces and rub in until the mixture resembles fine bread crumbs
• Sprinkle over the water and mix to form dough. Knead very lightly.
• Roll our three-quarters of the pastry on lightly floured surface and use to line a 9 inch oven proof pie plate. Leave to chill in the refrigerator while preparing the rifling.
• Gently heat the syrup and mix in the lemon rind and bread crumbs. Pour into the pastry shell.
• Roll out the remaining pastry and cut into thin strips to form a lattice pattern on top of the tart.
• Bake in a moderately hot oven for about 30 minutes and serve with a custard sauce (or vanilla ice-cream!)

I love it on my Irish oatmeal.

LadyCook, wherever you see a recipe calling for treacle, you can often substitute Golden Syrup. Less malty than treacle, it has same consistency and similar sweetness. Some recipes call for a combination of both treacle and Golden Syrup but you can usually get by with using all of one or the other.
