Treacle Tart - Harry Potter or Harry Wales

Описание: I've never made a treacle tart for Harry Potter, but I know it's his favorite. i have made a treacle tart for Harry Wales though, many times. In the Royal nursery when Prince Harry and Prince William were young and into their teen years. It's a delicious traditional British comfort food and served hot or cold with whipped cream, ice cream or lashings of custard no wonder it has been on the Brits (and Royal) menus for years. Even The Queen enjoyed treacle tart and it was often on her menu (and requested by her) at Buckingham Palace.

It's the perfect alternative to the American pecan pie, a delicious and interesting change on the Thanksgiving table.

TREACLE TART
Serves 6-8

The pastry;
¾ cup plus 2Tbs granulated sugar
¾ cup plus 2 Tbs unsalted butter
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla paste
3 ½ cups flour
1/4 cup cold water

Cream the butter and sugar until light in color. Add the egg, water and vanilla paste then slowly incorporate the flour to form a ball. Wrap the paste in parchment paper and refrigerate for at least an hour before use.

This recipe will make more pastry than you need for this one tart, but I always like to have some in the refrigerator spare and it keeps for at least three weeks.

The filling;
1 lb tin golden syrup
2 cups (about 7 slices) fresh white breadcrumbs
juice of 1 lemon

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees f
Roll out the pastry to about ½ inch thick and line an 8 inch flan ring or pie dish. Blind bake to allow the crust to set a little.
In a large bowl combine the golden syrup, breadcrumbs and lemon juice and spoon into the lined pastry case.
Bake in the center of the oven for about 30 minutes or until the pastry edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Slice and serve with Ice cream, whipped cream or English custard.
